I don't know why, but my ability to form habits is very weak.
That's something of a blessing when it comes to bad habits. Although, it does mean I have to be pretty intentional about good practices.
I’m sure you give yourself less credit than you deserve. Surely you must be functioning reasonably/awesomely* well in other aspects of your life in order to maintain your presence here.
*delete appropriately

I'm definitely highly functional. I just take things on a very ad hoc basis, rather than a habitual one.

Erm would you attribute this to the after-effects of the trauma you suffered during grad sch? As in, you don’t want to live your life so rigidly/cautiously anymore? Sorry if I’m being presumptuous

Nope. This is just how I seem to have been wired.

I’m impressed by how parenting hasn’t changed this inner core!
These days, I live by habits. This, from the guy who could happily arrive at a foreign city, not knowing where he would sleep that night
