Reframe a Habit You Have Failed to Build as an Information-Gathering Phase

The fifth time you start a habit and drop it on day eleven is not a character flaw. It is data. The problem is that without a framework to read that data, you just repeat the same attempt and feel worse each time. This reframes the failure history as information, names what the pattern reveals, and designs a twenty-one-day experiment rather than another commitment.

I have tried and failed to build the habit of {HABIT} multiple times. The typical pattern is: I start, I miss a few days, I feel like I have broken the streak, and I stop entirely.

Help me reframe this history. Specifically:
1. What the repeated failure pattern actually tells me about this habit (what it requires that I have not yet provided)
2. How to interpret past failed attempts as data rather than evidence of personal failure
3. What I should deliberately test in the next [21-day] attempt, treating it as an experiment rather than a commitment
4. The minimum version of this habit that would still produce a meaningful benefit

Do not tell me to start small unless you can explain specifically why this habit in particular resists the usual start-small advice.
