Do you have a hard time prioritizing? If so, I bet you’re also buddies with Procrastination; I am! Getting started is 90% of the battle. Stop wasting time trying to get everything just perfect so that you can get to doing what needs to be done. Just do it!

People with ADHD are like a car with a stick shift and a dead battery, we need a little push and a pop of the gears to get the engine running. Once we get started, we’re good to go. If you can’t get going on your own, find someone to give you a push!

One of my biggest struggles is prioritizing. The concept of “what’s important NOW” is often pushed aside by “what’s FUN NOW!?”. At the end of the day though, I am left with a pile of hard tasks and am overwhelmed and frustrated. Having “FUN” is hard-wired into ADHD brains like nothing else, but I’ve learned to use FUN as my reward and motivation for completing the tasks I set for myself. What motivates you?
