RESILIENCE
Every repeated decision is another opportunity to talk yourself out of something. If going for a run, sitting down to write, or calling your mother has to be argued for each time, then consistency depends on winning that argument on tired days, which is not a reliable arrangement.

Take the thing you want to keep doing and attach it to a fixed time or an existing routine this week. Stop treating each instance as a fresh choice. Defend the slot rather than your motivation.
Do you have to persuade yourself into the same task daily?
