Some form of horizontal pulling such as Aussie pullups. It's even better in this scenario. If you have the pullup bar at home already, get some gymnastic rings for example.

There are handheld vacuum cleaners for sucking up virus, bacteria, pollen, and killing mites. Stuffy nose in the morning, gone! Do it once in a while, and keep making your bed.
Most answers seem to be different documentation and reminders, but I'd like to focus on something a little different.
I think Scrum and daily stand up is a "forcing function". It creates tension in individuals. Even if you get side tracked at work, and you are a bullshitter, most would probably reason something like "It is better so do some useful work that I got assigned/committed to so I can report progress tomorrow. And I want to avoid conflict". That would create "force" to move you and the rest of the team forward.
Tools and reminders etc. are all good, but weak forcing functions.
You still have to be disciplined.
I don't think you can create that same force pure solo, but can still improve current process. One way could be to have a friend, sibling or virtual assistant that you do the same reporting to every few days. Perhaps pick someone assertive. And as you know, if you bullshit you just fool yourself. Hopefully something like that is a strong enough "forcing function" to snap you out of your tangent and back on track for a few hours/days before the next report.
