I was thinking about your question this morning, and I honestly believe the simpler plan is the better one for now.

I tried forcing a very detailed routine last month, and it looked great on paper, but I never felt relaxed enough to keep it going.

What worked better was keeping just a short list and leaving room to improvise when the day shifted.

If you want, start with one part that feels easiest instead of committing to the full setup right away.

I also noticed that doing things at the same time each day helped more than trying to do them perfectly.

Some days were messy, but keeping the pattern familiar made restarting less annoying.

I would rather be a little consistent than overly ambitious for a week and then abandon the whole thing.

Let me know what version feels most natural to you, because once it feels too rigid, I usually stop enjoying it.

I meant to reply earlier, but I wanted to sit with it for a bit and give you a real answer instead of rushing through it.

My instinct is that you do not need to solve the whole situation in one pass, especially if every option seems equally awkward at first.

When I get stuck, I try to remove one layer of complexity and see what still matters after that.

Usually the first plan feels important because it is the most familiar, not necessarily because it is the most useful.

You might have more clarity if you test a small version first and then decide what is worth keeping.

That approach saves a lot of second guessing and keeps things from turning into an all day debate.

I also think it helps to give yourself permission to change direction once you learn something new.

If you want, send me the version you're leaning toward, and I can help you trim it down so it feels easier to act on.
