Idk what else to call it honestly. Basically the start of a month/season/year or some other major event to go "I've been clean from X event/date"

Context: I've been addicted to porn since preteen years, exposed to it well before that. I had kicked it for a while and then fell back into it after my ex-wife cheated and ran off with the guy three years ago. Still haven't been with anyone since as my goal is to clean it up rather than enter a new relationship carrying this and I've been working really hard to do so. Presently my current record is 12 weeks, and it's been 2 weeks since my last incident

My question though for anyone else dealing with this, Do you find starting a clean streak at the start of something to be helpful in keeping the streak going? I've found that if I try again on a random Tuesday I'm more likely to fail again next week, but if it's like "ok, last one was March 30th, let's go a completely clean April" I tend to have more success. Has any one else found this to be the case?
