Most common cause
The routine is too complex. Reduce the dose until it becomes automatic — then expand.
| Failure mode | Fix |
|---|---|
| “I forget” | add a prompt (calendar, visible cue, pairing) |
| “I don’t have time” | cut the dose (2 minutes counts) |
| “I decide in the moment” | create defaults (same time, same plan) |
| “I’m too tired” | fix sleep + move earlier in the day |
