A beginner mistake I am weirdly glad I made without making it complicated

> Tiny progress is still progress.

That line sounds cheesy, but it got me through the part where retro stopped feeling new.

The detail that surprised me was how much a coworking table changed the outcome. Same plan, different setting, completely different energy.

My current rule is simple: if it takes less than 5 minutes to prepare, I am much more likely to keep doing it.

Anecdotally, this tracks with what I have seen. I would love to see a follow-up after 4 weeks.

This is genuinely helpful, thanks for writing it out. The social part surprised me too.

Great point, especially the part about beginner. This is why house rules need a constitution.
