I went down this exact path and the one thing I'd warn about is how easy it is to quietly stop once life gets busy. The system has to survive a bad week. How do you handle the off days?

Thanks for reading. To answer the earlier question — it took me about six months before it felt automatic, not the two weeks I'd expected.

Bookmarked — I've sent three posts like this to my group chat and this is the one that'll actually get read. What got you into this in the first place?

Yep. The difference between the people who succeed and the people who quit is just whether they pushed through the dull stretch.

Wish I'd read this three years ago — would've saved me a whole detour. The framing alone is worth the post. What changed your mind from however you used to think about it?

I'll be honest, I was skeptical reading the title, but the reasoning holds up. The bit about cutting what you can't explain in a sentence is the part I needed. What's something you cut that you don't miss?
