Listen to this line. What did I say? You're going to like this. "Torah doesn't ask for perfection, it asks for consistency. We dive in every single day of the year, 365, and we should learn Torah every single day of the year, 365." This is called "Torah m'chaverah, choidem m'chaverah." If a person has he's going strong in the daf, he's 100 days in, and then he has to be up at 3:00 till 3:00 in the morning, he's in the delivery room with his wife, whatever it is, but he cannot break that retzifus. He should try as hard as he can not to break it. Open up the Gemara for 1 minute. And the same thing applies when you're exercising. You can't go out for the run, you can't get on the treadmill, you go on for 1 minute. Cuz that 1 minute that retzifus, you don't break the streak. You don't want to break the streak cuz the next day it'll be much easier to get on and do your full workout and the full daf, etc., etc.
