Creating a routine that focuses around your diet and weight training is so essential. Depending on the type of person you are, once you have that routine, it can be so soothing because it's what can ground you if other aspects of your life (typically work) are chaos. To some people, it may seem boring to eat the same thing day after day, but you know what? It can keep things under control with less room for error.

Regarding rest, while I want (and we all want) to get more sleep, life has a way of making that more difficult but I'm trying.
