What am I talking/writing about? My routine.
I have been trying to build a routine for several months ago. Although building/planning it is not the problem, maintaining it is. For example, when I discovered this platform, I wanted to write on it at least once a week. It has been almost three weeks since my first and last post; I haven’t been able to do it. And today, I stayed on my couch watching this Korean drama most of the day - my biggest weakness. Fortunately, I am here writing this now.
I do not want to give up. So since it is a new month, I want to start all over again. I promise myself that I am going to write every Friday. No matter how short or silly it could be, I have to write something!

Good for you! I just wrote my first entry this evening and I have been on this for over a month! Best wishes!
Well done. It’s always good to set up a new routine to support a desired habit!!
Hi. Good plan. Stating a time to do something is a good idea. I was suffering with the same problem recently. One thing that has helped me has been Implementation Intentions - https://jamesclear.com/implementation-intentions (Las Intenciones de Implementacion https://fitnessvitae.com/intenciones-de-implementacion/). Good luck. I look forward to your new post next Friday.
I relate a lot to this. Writing in my target language is difficult, and I might spend a whole hour writing a few paragraphs. But keep trying-- we're all in the same boat here!
Building habits is really difficult, and I often have a lot of frustration with myself and feelings that I am not making progress or sticking to my goals. Stick with it and have sympathy for yourself. We’re all doing our best.
