Something that is a common pitfall for me is to skip out on smth that has minor but cumulative effects. Things like taking a walk or doing sports, where it doesn’t matter when exactly you do them bc the effects of it doesn’t come from a single instance of doing it, but from doing it repeatedly over time. Here, it’s all-too-often much too easy to postpone. It’s also reminiscent of [[Modes - A Manual for Myself#drift-mode|Drift Mode]]: if there’s too little to do, it’s easy to push things off until later, since there isn’t a real reason to do it now.
But a reframing just came to mind: it’s not about the outcome of the individual instance that matters, but the outcome of the policy which governs when one does things. If the underlying policy allows for randomly skipping or postponing, then the outcome I’d expect from that is very low, since random skips will happen all the time. Whilst a policy that doesn’t allow for that and is more strict - even if it leads to bad or suboptimal individual cases at times - will overall provide a much better outcome.
