Which advice is actually useful

My current rule is simple: if it takes less than 7 minutes to prepare, I am much more likely to keep doing it.

Would love to hear how other people handle this. I am especially curious about the version that works on a tired weekday, not just on an ideal Sunday.

Surprised more people aren't choosing Only with help. It seems like the practical answer. That is where the boring checklist helps.

Only with help got my vote. The other choices are good, but this one fits my week. A little friction removed goes a long way.

Not for me got my vote. The other choices are good, but this one fits my week. This would have saved me a lot of trial and error.

Only with help got my vote. The other choices are good, but this one fits my week. I would love to see a follow-up after 3 weeks.
