4 tips for planning tasks so that they actually get done—even and especially when you're struggling with ADHD, writes DrSharonSaline
Many folks with ADHD attempt to hold all of their to-do items in their head or write them on several pieces of paper that they then cannot find. Centralize this process. Pick one location for your lists: your phone, your computer or iPad, or a notebook. Sit down and take two deep breaths: breathe in for 4, hold for 4 and breathe out for 6. Now, write down everything you can recall that you need to do. You probably won’t get everything in one sitting—that’s fine.
The more you don’t want to do something, the more likely it is that it’s important to start. These answers are usually very personal. Some people might rank making the dental appointment over the socks and will wear a used pair again. For me, I prefer clean socks and I can make the dental appointment when I’ve started the laundry.It’s usually easier to determine your priorities when you have support.
