I’d make #2 even more general to include experimentation and trial and error with your routine, especially breakfast and lunch plus your sleep hygiene.
That might sound complex, but you just do one thing at a time. If you have a few better days because of it, that direct evidence is the best way to make it stick in your brain.
The fact that I have any routines at all is evidence enough for me that it works for me. But I’ve been working at it for years. There are definitely multiple stimulants involved, lol.
And sometimes if you can’t make any progress, maybe you need to kinda look upstream and see if there is something else blocking you to work on instead, or that you need to combine with what you’re already doing. And sometimes it can be basic stuff that seems like it’s obvious, like maybe getting some real food in your stomach along with the coffee.
