If you started a new routine as part of your New Yearโs resolution and it feels harder now than it did in January, nothingโs gone wrong.
About six weeks in is when routines usually start to break down โ not because of discipline, but because the routine wasnโt designed for busy, low-energy days.
Shorten the routine.
Remove friction.
Keep a minimum version for days when energy is low.
Thatโs how routines start to last.
