Missing once is an accident. Missing twice is the start of a new habit. This is a distinguishing feature between winners and losers. Anyone can have a bad performance, a bad workout, or a bad day at work. But when successful people fail, they rebound quickly. The breaking of a habit doesnt matter if the reclaiming of it is fast. I think this principle is so important that Ill stick to it even if I cant do a habit as well or as completely as I would like. Too often, we fall into an all-or-nothing cycle.
