I just built and release an habit journaling app, which does not reset your progress even when you miss days and has different animated trackers for different types of habits. The concept was simple. The app journals your habit on cycle basis.1 cycle=90 days .After 90 days, another cycle begins. For visualization, it has some animated trackers according to habit type(for example, for yoga and mindfulness types habit, you can choose a chakra tracker. For reading, you can choose a glass filling with water tracker, For growth type, you can choose plant growing from seed to fully flowered).

You started a challenge like no booze, no fap etc and you go for 10-15 days straight. One day you scrolled through fb or insta and saw how lenient the rest of world is about the stuffs that you are prioritize too much(grinding like a ruthless beast) and now your thinking is distorted because that "Ahh man, you know what? i better go soft on myself" type of inner voice kicks in.

With that voice , your insecurity of "You becoming odd and not fitting into the world" gets a full support because you feel that you are on whole different path--just because you cut off some trash temporarily. Then fear starts and grows stronger and stronger making you blind as a bat until you mess up. And then loop continues

You being messed up was the main purpose of that apparently "saintly" inner voice and not to got accepted by the world). .

This is how insecurity deceives a person completely. Once insecurity is triggered, the only purpose of it is to grow it's hold as much as possible by immediately establishing a false impression of reality on a person's mind. Fearful thoughts, after insecurity is triggered, are inevitable and the fear is the top ally of insecurity since only through fear the insecurity can be boss. Although you force yourself to think "rightly" after the insecurity is triggered, you still will have that imposter feeling --you feel like you are not worthy of right thought since there is strong pull of that insecure energy. At this moment, the thoughts are like "enabling parents", who always supports their kids(Insecurity),regardless of their deeds or purpose. Meanwhile the more you try to differentiate the right or wrong thought, the energy given to the insecurity perpetuate(since all you are doing for is to just to cover the insecurity) and at last it will win and you will find yourself breaking the habit(although you think you were doing everything right).
