Great post! A similar approach has been working really well for me. I'm on target to hit a year of consecutive days of coding this weekend. GitHub: https://github.com/zachlatta

I had a bit lower baseline than the author. My rules are as follows:

1. Commit something, anything. Even if it's just fixing a typo in a readme or phrasing some documentation better.

2. You must commit every day.

3. Every contribution must be useful.
