Although you are 100% right that people love to see you working according to a schedule, I'm also a great example of someone that goes with the flow and has always done so. Yes, I show up every day to create emails (I only skipped 2 days in total) and yes normally people have more success sticking to one niche. For me, it never worked like that. And yet, things are going well.
Life asks for adjustments from time to time, and we just have to accept that and go with the flow in that phase of our lives. I hope your new routine works for you!
