Are there any serious meditators here? Morning and evening without fail for example? If so, why do you do it and what problems do you encounter? How do you overcome them?

I'm interested because I've been practising for a few months now ('Zen' meditation-Shikantaza) after reading scientific papers on the possible benefits of meditation but I don't seem to feel any real short term gains, which I know isn't the point, but what motivates one to do something so hard without benefits?

So I'm just interested in other people's habits and experiences.
