Three apps/features/tools I’m using the most throughout the day lately that help me get started, stay focused, and push through resistance:

*Forest app: especially with their new daily focus challenges that really brought me back into using it and sticking with it and planting more trees throughout the day

*visual timer(s): sometimes two at a time, even. In conjunction with the tree planting on Forest, I’m staying on task better (& making clearer decisions about what I intend to do). I love their tangibility and simplicity.

*Fitbit’s Cardio Load feature: the assessments, tracking, advice it gives me daily, and variability based on what I’ve actually been doing has helped me lately more than step goals (though the hourly get up and move reminders and small hourly goal is also a big manageable motivator for me). I find it really rewarding and feel really good about myself when I exceed my target, and really feel a huge burden lifted when it frequently sets my target very low because “you’ve really been pushing yourself lately”. It makes it clearer to me when I need recovery time and rest, and takes the second-guessing out when I actually decide to do just that.
