Keeping up habits

When you're keeping up something by habit
Sometimes you wonder if you should just let it end
Habits are hard and they eat up your time
Which can make them a tough thing to defend

I have broken many habits
Many streaks in life have stopped
Some, I have even restarted
Trying to pretend they never dropped

The extra time is nice, but there's something nicer
Something you don't see in the day to day
Progress. Progress that only comes with resilience.
It takes time to progress a skill from bad to ok

Today, if I could choose, I would stop. Cease flowing.
But the me in a year will likely be glad I kept going.
