I have a really hard time keeping habits or feeling willful enough to do tasks I don't really want to do (e.g., go eat, journal, get out of bed). I feel almost physically incapable of starting something even if I can realistically do it; not sure if this is because of my ADHD or depression or something else. I think the best steps I can take to get better at this point would be to becoming more disciplined and staying on top of habits/a schedule.
How do you guys try to maintain regularity or force yourself to take that first step in starting to do something?

I've tried almost every digital planner under the sun and I end up ignoring every notification I get haha. I always have notifications on my phone off (or at least silent) so it's hard for me to realize I've forgotten or should get off my ass and do my dailies
I should definitely try again though, thanks for reminding me of Habitica :)
