How easy is it for you to stick to a routine?

I prefer routines. I have a specific routine when I get up in the morning and before I go to bed.
I brush my teeth a certain way. I have a routine when I feed our bunny and three cats.

Creating routines, being methodical, and doing things the same way makes my life easier, helps me to be efficient, and keeps me from forgetting anything. I can go on autopilot.
When I find something that works, I stick to it.

I also place things I use regularly conveniently and put them back in the same place after I use them so that they are handy and don't get misplaced. I like being able to reach for what I need without even looking.

Depends extremely on what the routine would be and even when the routine would be.
Lets say I decide to walk for 30 minutes every day somewhere in the evening. I will hit that the vast majority of evenings with no issue. It would be a very mindful thing to do and I am good at will power.

But other things like a sleep schedule I am terrible at, its hard for me to be disciplined when tired and even if I force myself to I then end up falling asleep for only 1.5 hours and then am awake all night. And if its an automatic thing I typically forget to do but know I should have done it takes ages to adjust the habbit.

So if its about willpower I am extremely good at it, if its about something you do subcontiously its hard for me to adapt.

Very easy. One of my attributes is that I have great organizational skills and part of what makes that work is a solid routine.

I'd say it's fairly easy for me. I like having a routine because it helps me stay organized and feel more in control of my day.

Not easy at all. I get bored of repetition, other than when it comes to things I genuinely enjoy.

As an example, I could have a chicken shawarma every lunch every day. Working out every day at the same time is difficult for me because starting is always the hardest part. Sometimes I just lack motivation or feel lazy. That's why my workouts are all over the place. I just do them when I feel I'm getting too lazy or something.

And especially when it comes to work, it's so hard for me not to get distracted and stay on task. The most I've kept up with a work routine is a few months.

I can turn routines on and off. For example, I'm pretty good with food and exercise discipline. But I can deviate in the moment and skip all my workouts for a week then pick it back up the next week.

And I'm very spontaneous. I can do some things people might consider outrageous in the moment. But my routines keep me on a steady path overall. As in all things, balance.

Work routine, easy. Even with big projects, I know how to separate the tedious tasks from the easier ones. Alternating and keeping an eye on the final result and deadline is relatively easy.

Fitness routine, easy, but easier still when someone works with me towards a certain goal.

[NathanDavis]

fairly easy, and moreso if needed... but I can also adapt on the go and just go without it

I've had them both in my life at different times and for different things too... I've even been able to alternate within the two... lol

I'm pretty rigid with stuff like that, so pretty easily.

[MissSunshine2]

Very easy and encouraged, as I have Asperger's Syndrome.

Routines are not easy to follow but if they are important I follow them.

I an stuck in a routine and it somehow gets screwed up, my whole day falls apart.

[Shiprex]

If I see benefit then not too long otherwise it goes out of the windows

[Iron_Man]

Well, I went to school didn’t I? Then I played sports after so it’s all getting used to.

[Xawyx-2]

I can do it if necessary.

[Cidknee]

Easy peasy, until I sleep.

[queenofcardio]
