I totally agree with you. The "every day a little bit no matter how little" can take you way farther and I believe it's usually the most sustainable way to approach personal goals or learning projects.

Actually I followed that motto to build https://everydaycheck.com which is actually about that, to work on goals every day. One of the tricks I always share is to quantify the daily milestone, like "15 minutes of learning js" or "run 3km"
