I tried doing habits the boring way and it worked without making it complicated

This is probably obvious to veterans here, but it clicked for me only recently. habits got easier when I stopped treating every attempt like a final exam.

I know this is a tiny sample size, but after 8 attempts the pattern is pretty clear. When I keep the setup simple, I actually follow through.

I tried this in Buenos Aires with a friend and we both noticed the same thing: the social part mattered more than the perfect plan.
