Your post is simple but very realistic, because often we try to make big changes in our life without preparation after watching the routines of successful personalities and then end up exhausted and apathetic. The decision to get up at 5am wasn't bad, but it's really hard to make a sudden change without changing your sleep routine, and you honestly admit that a steady and gradual change is more effective. The best thing is that you learned from your failure and made a realistic plan for the future, because real success is not in imitating others, but in moving forward by understanding yourself.
