Re-railing in Steps to Change

In the past week I've broken just about every good habit that I had been building, except for writing, and that one holds on by a technicality more than an actual fact. Eating well, exercise, sleeping well, avoiding booze, avoiding soda (caffeine really), even work productivity...all various degrees of interrupted.
But I don't see myself as derailed as I might should. I think, more important than maintaining myself, than doing the things that I should continuously, is how I respond to the occasions where I fuck up.
Because you and I both know that is bound to happen.
Maybe, how we get back on the horse is more important than just staying on. Everyone gets bucked off; the question now is how I pick myself up, dust myself off, and get back at it.
And for whatever it is worth, that is the mood I am in now, the mindset that I have. I done goofed, time to do good.
I mean, we'll see. These kinds of things are things I have been derailed from often, sometimes with a short break, sometimes with a much less short one. My good intentions and pledge of will now is all well and good, but my history here is filled with good intentions that get derailed. So.
In mostly unrelated news, I have been invited as a date to a wedding, in June, with some people I know well and others I will not know at all. It should be interesting, at the very least. And is a nice goal for looking at least a little better; two months isn't a ton of time, but I think I can make some changes, at least.
Only one way to find out!
