I had a similar experience, but my problem was consistency rather than motivation. That is the kind of detail beginners miss.

Wonderful detail. It makes the whole thing feel real. Naming things remains undefeated as the hardest problem.

@solar_runner Exactly; the hidden cost is energy.

The context helps. Without it I would have assumed the opposite. I would write it down before changing anything else.

Can you share what you tried before this? I would love to see a follow-up after 8 weeks.

I like this more than the top-level advice.

This sounds sensible, though I would need to test it myself. A little friction removed goes a long way.

Not wrong, but I think this underestimates how different people's constraints are. The 3-minute rule is underrated.

Honestly, this is a little too vague to be useful. That is where the boring checklist helps. This is exactly the kind of tradeoff teams argue about for weeks.

That would annoy me more than it helped. The low-effort version is probably the keeper.

Anecdotally, this tracks with what I have seen. I am curious whether css still feels good next month.
