The daily draw turned into a chore and then into nothing

Oscar Lindqvist ·

Kept a twenty nine day streak, missed a Tuesday, and did not pick the deck up again for four months. Has anybody found a version of the daily practice that survives missing a day?

    Stop counting consecutive days and start counting entries. A notebook with two hundred entries in it over three years is a practice. A counter that resets is a game, and you will lose a game eventually by design.

    One line, not a page. The days I skipped were always the days I did not have twenty minutes, and it turned out the twenty minutes was my idea rather than the practice's.

    Four months off and you came back. That is the practice working, it just does not look like the streak counter thinks it should.
