The simplicity is the whole reason this sticks. Every time I've over-engineered something like this I quietly abandoned it within a month. Stripping it to one clear step is underrated. Do you have a fallback for the days you just don't feel like it?

Same, learned it the expensive way. Started small and let it compound instead of going all-in and burning out. Genuinely wish I'd done it sooner.

Tried this after reading a comment just like yours months ago and it stuck. Funny how it's always a random reply that changes things.

Worth saying this works way better once the fundamentals are in place. I jumped straight here as a beginner and it didn't click until I'd put in the boring reps first. Would you tell a total beginner to start here, or build up to it?
