Set myself a pretty modest goal 2 weeks ago, nothing dramatic, just:
– up by 6:30am
– short run before the laptop even opens
– no client emails before 9am
Day 4 and it’s actually held up better than I expected! Not every morning though, Tuesday I just lay there til 7:15 and skipped the run completely (deadline from the night before, brain was fried). But 3 out of 4 mornings I got out the door, even if the run was just 15 minutes around the block.
The 9am email rule is the one tripping me up more, not gonna lie, I catch myself checking my phone the second I’m awake out of pure habit. Twice already this week.
Dad’s follow-up appointment is Thursday so that’ll probably throw the whole thing off again, but wanted to write down where things stand before it does.
