Not OP but I used to be totally into productivity hacks and being on top of things, goal setting, habit tracking, everything.

I stopped when I realized I could just... Not, and still thrive in my life. Simplify my systems.

I set myself a goal to workout every morning. Sometimes I miss it because my infant daughter decides to wake up at 4am instead of 5am. I give myself grace.

We eat largely the same meals every day. Some cooked protein, some cooked veggies, and a grain (rice or pasta).

And I just have a regular routine at work where I work on work and also do explorative education for myself during breaks. Look into different frameworks, patterns, etc.

I didn't need to meticulously plan out every second of my day, month, year. I just needed systems that made things predictable. Sometimes I drop the ball and it's fine. I get back on the horse when I can.
