You don't talk your way back into trusting yourself.
You've already heard every promise you could make.
So has the part of you that keeps score.
The self does not trust speeches.
It trusts evidence.
So keep one small promise today.
Get up when you said you would. Finish the work. Shut the screen at the time you set.
Then do it again tomorrow.
Trust was damaged by evidence.
It has to be rebuilt by evidence.
That's Chapter 9 of The Disciplined Operator.
Nobody has to see it.
Proof can stand in an empty room.
