The small training habit that changed my late summer in Warsaw
A few notes from my attempt:
- keep the first step visible
- remove one annoying decision
- celebrate the boring repeat
I started this because my busy month felt a little stuck, and 5k seemed like a manageable place to experiment. The funny part is that the smallest change was the one I kept.
My current rule is simple: if it takes less than 3 minutes to prepare, I am much more likely to keep doing it.
