Exercise

I like to exercise after work better than in the morning, but then sometimes it gets skipped if I have something to do. How can I improve this?

It’s great that you’ve identified when you prefer to exercise! To improve consistency, consider setting a specific time for your workout after work, treating it like an important appointment. You can also create a ritual around your exercise routine, like changing into workout clothes right after work to signal your brain it’s time to exercise. If something comes up, have a backup plan, like a shorter workout or a quick walk. Building these habits can help you stay committed to your exercise goals.

You can set multiple reminders one during work and one in the early evening so even if you still have errands to run you allow enough time in the evening for at least a walk outside

I think the easiest way would be to try to build the habit of exercising in the morning - even if you prefer it in the evening. You will get used to it in a short while. Otherwise if you skip your exercise only once in a while, isn’t that perfectly fine?
