Even things I do regularly im only sorta, kinda, able to keep it going. I have some supplements I take twice a day and that sometimes happens but I almost take them at least once a day. I highly encourage shooting high to get closer to a minimal level of compliance. Oh and this only really works for really easy things.
I have all of my medicine bottles in a bright red makeup bag. I would be hopeless otherwise. Makeup bags are nice because they are very wide and deep. The growing pile of pill bottles fit nicely. I am talking about the more boxy shaped ones without anything inside them. Mine is around 8cm wide, 13cm high, and 20cm long. Really rough measurements.
I have a daily pill sorter and a daily reminder on my phone. I often see the reminder and forget about it 13 seconds later, so having them already dispensed makes it easy for me to see the reminder and just go do it. It helps that if I don’t take my medicine then I know I’ll feel sick, so if I ever make it to the afternoon without taking my meds it sort of makes me panic so that I go do it right away. It’s good I WFH, otherwise I’d never remember to take my meds before leaving for the day.
Those are horrible because they don’t help much and really highlight my failures. I even taped a baggie with my pill box inside onto a shelf in a convenient place to jog my memory.

I got the pill sorter things where I can prepare it every week. But since I average once a day I fille every other weekish.
