If you're looking to set up a habit cycle, I'd recommend three steps:

1. Find a cue that will remind you to start writing, e.g. having your morning coffee

2. Write any amount of time; say 30min or so

3. Reward yourself. I just have a little snack, but it could be anything

Works great for me, and I found once I changed some small habits, it was also easier to do better overall. This advice is from the book "The power of habit" by Charles Dhuigg
