I meant to reply sooner, but the week got busy and I kept thinking I would answer when I had a clearer idea. I ended up trying a different routine, and honestly it helped more than I expected.
I started heading out a little earlier in the morning just to have a quieter start, and that made the whole day feel less rushed. I also stopped trying to plan every single detail because that was somehow making me more distracted instead of less focused.
If you want my take, I would say keep it simple and do the version that feels easy to repeat. I always think I need some elaborate system, but usually a small shift works better. I am still adjusting a few things, though it already feels smoother than before. Let me know how it goes on your side, because I am curious whether you landed on something similar or went in a completely different direction.

I finally tried that suggestion you mentioned, and it turned out better than I expected. At first I thought it would feel awkward, but after a couple of tries it started to click and now it feels much more natural.
The biggest difference was giving myself a bit more room to be imperfect with it. I tend to assume I should already know how to do things well on the first pass, which is not how anything actually works. Once I let go of that idea, I relaxed and paid more attention to what was useful.
I also realized I prefer doing things in shorter bursts instead of setting aside a giant block of time. That way I come back with fresh attention and I do not get annoyed with myself halfway through. I am still tweaking the approach, but I think I found a version I can stick with. If you keep experimenting a little, you will probably find your own rhythm too.
