For me, habits only stick if I start by making them "too easy to refuse".
Sometimes working out is too much and I skip it. But if I start with the habit of just playing a 6 minute stretching video on youtube? It's so easy I can't say no to it, no matter how little energy I have.
Then slowly, over a long time, I get the momentum to turn it into a bigger, more harder habit
