You can't rely on motivation so it's usually useless to rely on trying to find or build that on a regular basis. You are building a new habit and that takes time. Also the idea that it takes 21 days to build a new habit is for the most part untrue. Depending on the individual and circumstances it can take much longer than that and often does. Discipline is the only thing that's going to keep you going until the habit is truly a part of your life and even then there will be times when you need to get yourself back on track. Nobody is perfect and the more consistent you are, the better chance you have at succeeding.

Same. I love that quirky little underpass.

Hopefully a fence that can not only keep dogs out but keep them in.

I'd argue that people with kids want this even more. Nothing like paying $100+ for childcare to go out and have to be near other kids.
