Hi anothercliche, not so hard on yourself, hey??!!
All these things you "should" be doing, well that's going to completely depend on your starting point. Are you going to be telling someone with a plaster cast on their leg that they "should" be jogging around the block because they need a bit of exercise?? Course you're not, so don't be so hard on yourself, OK??!!
If you're struggling with things and you manage to do something/anything that you wouldn't otherwise have been able to do, then that's an achievement!!!! Whatever that is!!!!
And they're all steps towards being able to do just a little more........and just a little more.......
So even if it takes weeks........of only sticking to doing 1, 2, 3 on your list (sometimes a little of 4 or 5 or 6) for example........if that 1, 2, 3 gets easier/more of a habit that can open the door to pushing those goals a little further, and you might even get to doing more of 4, 5 or 6!!!
So you've ticked of things, that's great, that's an achievement!!!! Well done!!!!!
And your list...........well maybe add in some things that you may not get around to, but you might enjoy if you actually did them. Other things........perhaps make them a bit more specific, so there's more to realistically aim for??? Like you'll do some "late work" around x pm or before y pm, because you know time can slip by can't it?? , for the don't eat as much garbage..........maybe plan what you're going to eat and try to stick to it (do allow yourself a little leaway, if you don't quite stick to it though!!).
And even shorten the list if you think that would be more realistic, achievable..........then any extras you do that aren't on the list...........you know what I'm going to say give yourself real credit for those, those are achievements too!!!!
So kind of make the list work for you...........and reward yourself for your achievements!!!!

And btw I want you to now be changing that / to a V on no. 6!!!
Thirty minutes of biking IS something physical, as far as I'm concerned!!!
