1. Remind yourself of the "why" 2. Remind yourself of small successes 3. Start your day off right 4. Remove the "should"s or "supposed to"s 5. Take a break!
Yehh this doesn't work for me either. 😢 I know the goals, the whys and I remember how I felt when I was succeeding, but knowing isn't enough to even remotely motivate me to do it 😢😢
Out of all of these I definitely think that reminding yourself of the "why" is the most important. I feel for me at least, my ADHD makes me run subconsciously on autopilot, so bringing my thought back to that conscious part of my psyche can get my brain to do whatever I want it to.
I literally watching this right now as I'm about to finish a cleaning job I started 2 days ago. Filming and posting my cleaning on my channel helps a lot but sometimes you need an extra boost of, "hey! Help you help yourself!" Haha great video and i subscribed!
Unfortunately, doing these "hacks" requires motivation to do them in the first place. Actually, these are standard tips that work well for people who have some procrastination problems but don't have ADHD. When you tell an ADHD person, "Do this....," you're already on shaky ground. Got any hacks for that?
Hi @adhdvision The "Intense Break" with doing only what I like and ordering processed food is a life saver. May I ask: 1 How often do you do this more or less? 2 Do you always do 1 full day of intense break or sometimes less or more?
Hey, thanks for the comment. So I would say I probably do this about once a week. The more I do it, the less I actually overeat on that day aswell. Builds up quite nicely as a habit :)
thank you sm for making this channel, I'm pretty confident that I have ADHD but for a variety of reasons, I haven't been able to get a diagnosis or ADHD-specific therapy. these videos really help a lot, especially considering the fact that I'm homeschooled and I largely have to rely on my own motivation to get my work done (which tends to be an issue considering the whole ADHD thing lol) do you think that you're going to make a video on sensory overload? I've been struggling a lot recently with sensory overload, specifically hearing loud noises and people talking, and I'm at a bit of a loss on how to deal with it great content as usual!!!!
Additional info that may help someone as it helped me: Mucuna Pruriens raises dopamine levels efficiently! I love it!! For a few years been taking it. Himalaya brand 2 caplets a day.

1:12 i swear its Painfukll really painfull for me it hurts my soul , when i start the thing then it gets better but before its soo hard to do it man i thought always I was a failure but im Sick
Question Can we lose that wonderful hyperfocus 'superpower' if we get more balanced? I find myself worrying it will disappear as I progress with managing my ADHD
Ave been of my meds for a couple year now and I’m not that hyper except the occasional day most my friends didn’t even think a had it until a told them only thing is i get distracted easy and still fidget quite abit but a feel like my focus isn’t as good as it used to be and struggle to focus on the one thing
1. Remind yourself of the "why"
2. Remind yourself of small successes
3. Start your day off right
4. Remove the "should"s or "supposed to"s
5. Take a break!
Yep, that pretty much sums it up ;)
Thank you, my adhd got angrier by the second he didn't get to the points...
This will not work for me...

Hi @adhdvision
The "Intense Break" with doing only what I like and ordering processed food is a life saver.
May I ask:
1 How often do you do this more or less?
2 Do you always do 1 full day of intense break or sometimes less or more?

great content as usual!!!!
Hey, thanks a lot for the comment and the feedback! Sensory overload has just been added to my future video topics list :). All the best!
You might have atusim maybe because sensory overload is normally found in atustics
Thanks bro I need this
No problem my man

1:12 i swear its Painfukll really painfull for me it hurts my soul , when i start the thing then it gets better but before its soo hard to do it man i thought always I was a failure but im Sick
Question
Can we lose that wonderful hyperfocus 'superpower' if we get more balanced?
I find myself worrying it will disappear as I progress with managing my ADHD
I really don’t think so. Adhd is embedded in our brains it doesn’t go away
Ave been of my meds for a couple year now and I’m not that hyper except the occasional day most my friends didn’t even think a had it until a told them only thing is i get distracted easy and still fidget quite abit but a feel like my focus isn’t as good as it used to be and struggle to focus on the one thing
