Does this sound like the set of challenges you might be facing?

• I start strong and then by midweek the commitment quietly fades and I drift, and I want some regular built-in moment
• I start strong and then it just quietly fizzles when nothing’s pulling on me
• I start every commitment on fire and dead serious, and then a few weeks in I notice the drive has quietly drained away without me even clocking it
• When it’s just a promise to myself I let it slide without a second thought, but the moment I have to say out loud to someone else what I’ll get done and then report back, suddenly I actually follow through.
• I’ve decided to finally do this and I want to begin on a day that feels like a real line in the sand
