I have found the idea of making the time for something, even if you don’t do that thing, is helpful; like, I started making myself sit in my mini gym for thirty minutes without a phone, and at first I probably only did fifteen minutes of stuff… now it’s a useful time
1. Start small
2. Make habits part of your personality (you don't have to workout, you are someone who works out)
3. Repetition makes it easier (Do it even when you don't want to and it will get progressively easier)
I feel like all of those are somewhat obvious in hindsight but it's nice to see them formalized.
