Hold yourself accountable to doing them with some kind of habit tracker, then once you can consistently do those start adding on other things. Try the Fabulous app! I used it to build self discipline when I was like 22 years old lol

But the best way is to simply do it. set a time to do something, sit down and start, and keep going for like at least 15 minutes. Preferably with your phone far away. And then you KEEP doing this repeatedly. I find having creative partners also helps to hold me accountable

I did this without realizing it would be much more helpful than just [11am Do New Habit].
I haven't been following through on my new habit lately, but I feel bad dismissing that plea from my would-be better self.
It's really, really difficult to start a healthy habit so do not worry when you aren't perfect!
If you can, make it a habit that you do first thing in the morning so there are minimal obstacles that could throw you off.
Do not try to start more than one habit at a time!
Best of luck!

As long as you write (or do whatever habit you intend to start) for 21 days, there’s a high chance it will stick!
So write everyday even if it’s one word, one sentence, one paragraph - start really small but really consistent. Maybe dedicate a specific nice notebook for it.
I don’t write but I’ve used this approach with art, reading, working out, etc. and I’ve had success!!

My dad teases me about how when I was a little kid, my favorite thing to do when I was on the landline phone with somebody—be it a relative or one of my best friends—was to breathlessly describe the things that were in my bedroom so that they could have a mental picture of everything I loved and chose to surround myself with, and where I sat at that moment in time. Perfectly Imperfect reminds me of that so thanks for always listening and for sharing with me too 💌

I’ve been thinking about how much of social media is centered around curating our self-image. When selfies first became popular, they were dismissed as vain and vapid—a critique often rooted in misogyny—but now, the way we craft our online selves feels more like creating monuments.
We try to signal our individuality, hoping to be seen and understood, but ironically, I think this widens the gap between how others perceive us and who we really are. Instead of fostering connection, it can invite projection and misinterpretation—preconceived notions, prefab labels, and stereotypes. Worse, individuality has become branded and commodified, reducing our identities to products for others to consume.
On most platforms, validation often comes from how well you can curate and present your image—selfies, aesthetic branding, and lifestyle content tend to dominate. High engagement is tied to visibility, not necessarily depth or substance. But I think spaces like PI.FYI show that there’s another way: where connection is built on shared ideas, tastes, and interests rather than surface-level content. It’s refreshing to be part of a community that values thoughts over optics.
By sharing so few images of myself, I’ve found that it gives others room to focus on my ideas and voice. When I do share an image, it feels intentional—something that contributes to the story I want to tell rather than defining it. Sharing less allows me to express who I am beyond appearance.
For women, especially, sharing less can be a radical act in a world where the default is to objectify ourselves. It resists the pressure to center appearance, focusing instead on what truly matters: our thoughts, voices, and authenticity. I’ve posted a handful of pictures of myself in 2,500 posts because I care more about showing who I am than how I look.
In trying to be seen, are we making it harder for others to truly know us? It’s a question worth considering.
