Ok sleep. Social media is becoming a habit incredibly fast. I suppose it makes sense given that it is gamified, but I never actually carefully tracked how automatic things could get back when I solely used gamification to attempt routines.

Ok sleep. Really low on energy, completely drained on Friday, hence the skipped recording. Today was pretty difficult, but I used my rudimentary ego-depletion protocol after sitting around procrastinating at my computer. It worked. I'd like to do an experiment on this, and after a bit of research found an ego depletion scale. The original paper describing it is hard to track down, but there is what looks to be a dissertation posted online from the Netherlands that has the scale in its appendix.
This is interesting in that it gives me a metric to measure states of ego depletion and how best to practically circumvent them. It also, if inverted, could potentially give me a willpower metric, something that's been sorely missing in my larger theory, and could get me a step closer in coming up with a self-help equation.

Great sleep. 52 weeks of Meal Prep, and it didn't feel that long at all. This has been by far the best habit I've trained (after multiple failures) for eating. It's by no means a mastered skill, but compared to my failures, I feel I'll look back at it as a lynchpin behavior.

Good sleep. Decided to add 3 new behaviors. Two skill pushes: adding a dinner plan to my monday cook up and adding a 30 minute set of researching/blogging. I thought an additional habit, learning and participating in social media, would complement any additional writing and research I'd do. My dinner plan will be added right after my meal prep - after I'm done Lydia and I will discuss 2 dinners we'll each make, then I'll write them down on a piece of paper on my fridge.
We've been talking about this for a while, and I've done this for a few weeks and it has really worked to take out choice (and eating badly) during the week. I'm appending my 30 minutes of research and blogging to the end of my writing work.

Good sleep. Incredibly depleted - the cause and effect relationship seems to hold, as yesterday was quite draining. I wonder how predictive it can be? I also was going to take today off after writing, but I felt a strong urge to row, and then everything else just fell into place. It's a good sign that the base construction of my habits is solid, even if my skill progression is shaky.
