Daniel Clough explains that slipping on habits is normal. When it happens, notice the lapse, regroup, and recommit with intention. The goal is maximizing visible progress, what he calls keeping green on the board.
And actually, if I could boil all of this episode into the simplest, highest-level piece of advice, it would be this: push for as much green on the board as you can. And this should reassure you, actually, because if you have slipped, that's okay. I'm generally slipping on one or two habits at any one time also, as you've just seen. And as I said before, you have to expect to slip. What matters is noticing, regrouping, and then recommitting, because that's what allows you to be intentional.
