Do something, anything, every day to get yourself closer to your goals.
I have found that one especially useful! It's definitely done wonders with my writing. For example, if I have trouble finding the time to do a full post, (which is usually upwards of three hours) due to jumping down a curation rabbit hole (or some other distraction or legitimate reason) then I can always either do a five minute freewrite, or enter an easy contest.
This forces me to write something which keeps me in the habit of posting daily. Even if my connection acts up, I can still write it, and post the next day. It's not about the streak, it's about the habit 🙌 !
