A tiny win from Toronto that made my week with an useful constraint
A few notes from my attempt:
- keep the first step visible
- remove one annoying decision
- celebrate the boring repeat
> Tiny progress is still progress.
That line sounds cheesy, but it got me thru the part where soccer stopped feeling new.
I had a disappointing first try, a surprisingly good second try, and then a third attempt that taught me humility. So, naturally, I now have opinions.
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

Great point, especially the part about tiny. This would of saved me a lot of trial and error

I appreciate the honest middle stage, not just the polished ending. It sounds small, but the setup matters

Kind of wild how often respectfully is the whole issue

that would annoy me more than it helped. The 7-minute rule is underrated

the kindness in this post is lovely. That is the kind of detail beginners miss
