I am cheering for this update. Honestly, the simplest version wins for me. The follow-through matters more than the perfect plan.

My version of this was messier, but the conclusion was similar. That is where the boring checklist helps.

Maybe, but the tradeoff seems bigger than the post suggests. This is more useful on a tired busy month than on a perfect day.

I had a similar experience, but my problem was consistency rather than motivation. It reminds me of a very specific conversation near a tiny balcony.

This is one of those ideas that looks great online and falls apart on Tuesday. I would test it for 9 days before deciding.
