You can actually just choose to lock in. And you don't need a perfect streak. Waking up early, working out and eating a nutritious breakfast is a perfect morning for probably 90% of people but our society is so broken that being healthy is associated with being either a grifter or a fascist.

You can actually just choose to not be depressed too. Just skip the therapy and exercise altogether.

They get the context plenty fine. You're just wrong.

God I wish one could actually just choose to lock in.

Not everyone needs breakfast and still eat healthily. A longer fasting period is even an argument against it. But to each their own.
