There's a big problem with the productivity industry. Too many systems are designed to make you look busy rather than actually get work done and aren't designed for the adhd brain. It's even worse for people with ADHD. These systems were designed for neurotypical brains. They simply don't work. Learn strategies designed for the adhd brain and learn how to motivate your interest-based mind, rather than simply "trying harder" at strategies not designed with you in mind.

In this video Nik goes over how to beat procrastination, executive paralysis, low motivation and focus, and what he learned after 26 years of having adhd. He hopes this video was able to boost your dopamine.

HI I just got through 1 hour and almost a half and then my phone dropped the session out. I was just getting to the end. How can I get to the end without now having to go through a whole new session which I cannot do again. There is no contact on this page you post above to email someone for help. Thank you. Great stuff.
Oh man that online video is 1.5 hrs? I need to go and I'm 45min in... and you're saying I have to go through that 1.5 hrs again??? Agreed, a link to the excel would be nice.
After watching your vids and some other creators I self diagnosed myself with adhd but when I told my parents about it they didn't believe it what should I do?
@@BeckyJusto The presentation is not live, is recorded, anytime you enter it will say it start in the next hour. So you can leave on the background. Still, the last part is just a sale presentation...
@@muhammadahmedbilal9286 You will have similar symptoms as adhd if you are constantly watching tiktok and short form content. If you think you have real adhd. Go talk to a professional. I got my diagnos at 8 and i remember they put sensors on my head and i guess did some tests on how my brain acted. If your parents aren't qualified to diagnos you with adhd, their opinion is irrelevant. If you really want to convince them, sit them down and show them facts.
Watching ADHD stratedies on 1.75x while doing something simultaneously 😅
Haha me too! 😅
1.5x 😅
Same here!!!😂
Came here to say that. I should be working on our finances, but came on RUclips to get music so I could stop hearing neighbor's barking dog and saw this video. haha.
Is there another way? To do anything?
✨ Summary:
- People with ADHD struggle with consistency in motivation rather than lacking motivation itself
- Traditional productivity advice doesn't work well for ADHD brains which crave dopamine and novelty
- Starting work first thing in the morning when dopamine levels are highest can help with focus
- Breaking big tasks into just the first 3 steps and setting time-based rather than outcome goals makes starting easier
- Building momentum by starting with easy tasks provides motivation to tackle harder ones
- Tracking streaks and progress visually taps into the ADHD brain's love of games and challenges
- Regularly introducing novelty through changes in environment, routine, or combining tasks boosts motivation
- Finding ways to make tasks stimulating and challenging allows the ADHD brain to hyperfocus
THANK YOOUUUUU sooo much!!. Can I be cheeky and ask you to add a space between each point to make it easier to read/digest - this is the best!!
Thank you very much
Tysmmmm
Now ım mad that l watched the video instead of looking this comment
If I am getting chores done, but not those on my list I make a list of things that I have done. Looking at what I accomplished gives me a dopamine hit.
I add them to my list just to cross them off! lol, I swear my house would never get clean if I didn’t use cleaning as a means of procrastinating administrative tasks 😂
@@tinyprecious i do this too! makes me feel better. also asking the question as i go into a room.
"what doesn't live here" & "don't put it down put it away" constant cycle when walking around the house😂😂
Here the same!
This is a great strategy. Sometimes, I change up the environment by playing music, changing up the LED smart lightbulb or set the cleaning tasks for the morning, afternoon or AM/PM on the weekends. That way, it is less overwhelming by Sunday and Monday. Mon less things to do. I've noticed that preparing different colored teas or cold drinks will boost my dopamine in the morning. I'm always experimenting with teas, coffees, and mineral spring water. I can do lists as long as it remains visible, such as a magnetic writing board on the fridge and star magnets. Every time, my roommates or I accomplish a whole week of chores. A star goes next to the person's name. Then reset, and you get to challenge yourself and your roommates once again. Like a video game or a game show. 🎮 🕹
Same
I’m one of the late diagnosed women at 53; it’s been a year now - at first like a week or so I was so happy to understand and get answers and then it was an awful realization of - wow my life is a wreck because of this - wow took some time to get past that just recently - all the best to everyone 🎉
Keep pushing we are all with you
Never too late
yes Im 52 - past it????????? yeah thats gonna be easy.. It took me 50 years to rangle me into submission now I find out I been in a battle I didn't need to be in...
Also 53 and symptoms got a lot worse lately!!
@@judyjackson1943what I mean by past it is just accepting past, stop judging myself and learning to embrace what it can mean now and in future
As a pure adhder i always come to the comments to see a summary of the video. And to show you how serious my situation is I am writing this before i even checked the comments because then I would forget it.
If he understood ADHD the video would have been 20 seconds long - not almost 18 minutes...
@@JacovanDykTheLegend he is at adhd level 50 , we are lower , we have to upgrade.
@@JacovanDykTheLegendhe made a short video 1st summarizing/introducing. 18min is crazy short for this depth of info.
@@JacovanDykTheLegendYou can choose to watch 1min at a time yo. I'm saving the video to watch multiple times & take notes. Maybe that can help you too!
LOL SAME. Literally can’t watch a video without simultaneously reading comments
I panic if I don’t get stuff done in the morning, knowing it is grossly unlikely to get done.
This explains my "Mad Hatter" strategy working so well, slowing down? Blocked? CHANGE PLACES! Standing desk, balance board, different keyboard, sofa, work outside, go to office, coffee shop 🤘
Cold showers also helps you get you out of freeze fawn or flop when you can't get out of fight or flight. This is according to my therapist.
My doctor said coffee is great…
@@gailremp8389 hahah! coffee can help but i find wait a little time before drinking coffee start with water + electrolytes game changer. cold shower is amazing for us, if its hard just start on cooler than you would normally and then reduce slightly every day.
make it a challenge to get to the final level :)
I also wash my hair with cold water over the bath it’s super invigorating ❤.. my boiler broke once and I had no choice! Now I do it by choice lol.. who knew 😂
@@gailremp8389nice. We're coming into winter here in Australia. Coffee it is. Brrrrr
@@Weirtoe good deal. We’re at Holy Crap (I’ll be polite) in Central FL…95-96.

Thank you very much
I'm so glad you said this! I saw in an ADHD group the "eat the frog" strategy and I actually commented, "This doesn't work for me at all, I have to a smaller task first that leads up."
How ironic is it that i've had to start over again to focus on the vid 8 times now XD
Better than me... I started more than 20 times 🫣
Oh thank God!
Repetition is the root of retention. Not much is learnt by listening just once.
Eat Something while watching - Had some Quark with strawberrys & Protein Powder - yum.
I saved the video so I can watch it over and over.
My morning starts at 4-5am. Drink water, go for a walk and plan my task.
Once back... coffee, music and work on whatever my mind is attached to that day.
ADHD has made me a reliable clutch doer.
Boring tasks are the drag... I try to do those while I do other things. Laundry, dishes, cleaning, paying bills, etc. Always at the last possible moment. Always gets done, no problem
I'm 54 and newly diagnosed. I've been stuck and swirling the drain for 15 years. I really like your videos. Thank you for making them. It's nice knowing what's wrong but change is harder than I thought, kinda like trying to turn the Titanic around before it hits the iceberg. But your videos are relatable and help. I really wish you all the best. I used to wake up, shower, and work like you describe. Will try getting back to it tomorrow morning.
Welcome to the club. You got this brother!

WOW!!! You've just described my situation to a tee! 😱 I was 53 when I was diagnosed! I gradually watched my life go from somewhat orderly to chaotic! Really frustrating! It's different for women. My ADHD became heightened because of the hormone issues after the menopause which is what led to my diagnosis. My apartment is now ordered chaos as a result! I'm in the UK and the support we need just isn't there. Sometimes I get so angry because we're being made to feel as though it's our fault or that we don't matter because we have the disorder when we're in no way to blame! I managed to get a degree back in the early 90's before the menopause set in. But little did I know I would only have a few years before the craziness would return with a vengeance! 😭 These videos have been a breath of fresh air not to mention very enlightening!
@@eirini9419 you are not alone. B4 knowing i have ADHD, I tried to attend college, and at the beginning I was quite good and one of the top 5 In the class. But my distraction and confusion kicked in, and i couldn't pass the second year. I just wanted to stop time because i couldn't focus, but youtube i could watch it for ours. The drive to acomplish things just Was not overthere. I wanted to dissappear. Now when i listen to Adhders i feel they felt the same things I've passed through all my life and since they are tackling ADHD using techniques and tricks, that gives me hope for a better future at 47😅. For me and people surrounding me. Peace and keep on striving. Done is better than prefect. ❤
Try to read The Better Brain by J Kaplan and J Rucklidge. Also Hardy Nutritionals have Daily Essential Nutrients, based on research from the professors mentioned earlier.
There is not try only do or don’t do
Part of #5 - I write down what I've managed to achieve, sometimes several times a day. It's a constant reward/feedback system.
One thing I that gives me a nice dopamine hit is before and afters. I take pictures if it is a visual difference, I make charts, to-do lists, and such, if it is a data difference. I do have to be careful with charts and to-do lists as these can cause me to hyper-focus on them and not get the actual thing done :S
I also had to change how I looked at success. I would idealize what the end product should look like and sometimes this alone would cripple me from starting - too difficult, too many steps. So now I just take success as making progress.
I also find that if I try to do something when I am not properly motivated it's kind of a waste of time and does not get done properly. If I wait until I have that motivation, it is soooo easy!
I really like this. I'm going to try some before and afters, I resonate qwerty the rest of what you've said
@Sypherz Great ideas, thanks!😊
The point about perfectionism is very valid. If you can start in a small way - work, exercise, hoovering etc however small ' it is better than doing nothing.
....just don´t do Duolingo during your coffee breaks...might end in a 2h coffee break....3 year strong bird-streak and fluent in 5 languages🐦
I love Dr Halloway. He turned the whole ADHD into looking at things from a positivedirection
Good call on starting with the easiest thing first. In education, we practice this by targeting the Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD). If the content or task is too difficult, learned helplessness will take over.
I've never been officially diagnosed with ADHD, but I resonate with your video a lot. I've been struggling with motivations, or lackthereof, to a sense that I feel like I should've been in a better position in my life. I am aware that my procrastination and my almost non-existent consistency stunted my progress, but never found a motivation to beat them. Well, not until I found your video. I'm excited to try your strategies and hopefully see some meaningful progress. Thank you!!!
Modern technology/notifications/social media have all been designed to hook users, and have affected our brain chemistry. Even though I do not have ADHD (it's not how I was before I had my first smartphone), my present-day attention problem is stemming from modern life and the tips in this video were still SO HELPFUL
The momentum part is so trueee. It also implemends with how we should read books. When I start with the most interesting page, I always will end up reading alot because it got me hooked.
"Inconsistently consistent" - Liked that term. Like a *rebel achiever*. 😅
Thank you SO much for this video. AuDHDer here. That was so validating about how you immediately start deep work upon arising. That’s what works best for me too, but it’s confusing to hear all the gurus talk about *stimulate bdnf by doing an intense work out right away!* but to your point, that’s my golden hour and I am most productive with my deep work 5 am sessions. Thank you!
The first 3 steps is the same idea as "Might as well" : -> "Just three emails are done? Might as well continue"
Action gives motivation, indeed ! ♡
The time gives us the needed emergency. So a time helps.
I wouldn't say that the level of dopamine an be risen. We just can keep the level we have and slow down its sped up degradation.
A calendar at the same place becomes invisible, remember #objectPermanence :')
A big thing that helps is Body Doubling. May it be a phone call or only a video "Study with me" to fake it ♡
This video explains how i achieve goals with adhd.
Cracking your own code is important!!!
Where is notion template?
that's what everyone is asking haha, i think you have to pay to get it, in the link you go to a video about his course and thenabout how to but it, but non free notion template :(
My brain looks for interest not importance. Nice - new interesting, challenging emergency.
1. Start first thing in the morning. Only do things that increase dopamine in the morning. Cold shower, exercise, get some sun
Routines are difficult to maintain. Break your routines some days so you don't get bored.
2. Break tasks into the first 3 steps. Commit to short spurts. Outcome based goals vs time based goals
Do something. Not everything
3. Build momentum. Start with the easiest thing first. Quick dopamine hit. Video games always start easy. Focus on easy tasks esp after a long break eg mornings or after long breaks
5. Build streaks. A streak - number of days you do something. Eg Duolingo
ADHDers struggle with consistency not motivation
It's okay to have off days. Work at your own pace. Don't be too hard on yourself. compare yourself with you
Don't complicate it.
5. Regularly introduce novelty
Eg switch where you work, with whom or how or the time. Eg finish before x
Leverage competition. Alternate tasks combine tasks. Tweak environment
Friends! Thanks for being here. Which strategy resonated with you most?
Novelty for me.
Consistenly inconsistent
I am all for the momentum one, been doing it subconsciously and never really liked the "eat the frog" concept, but it also helps sometimes! Thank you!
The tracking of progress. I track my daily writing word counts and did before I even realized I had ADHD. One of the most motivating things to keep me going but also one of the most discouraging problems when things aren't going well. But still always important to know!
Hello, it is funny that many of that, i found it alone, as water bath i my rain tank, small easy victory the soonest possible (the harder part is to go when it seems to me to go out from coma every morning!) The time of work is a good interesting way so i don't have to spend hours to thinks about how / by what to start ... By the way, you spoke about a "free gamified app to help", but the only thing is only free 1 week then you have to pay..... Handicaped people aren't did you know ?
I always set out the “tools” I need ahead of time. For example, I hate making protein shakes, but if I set out the ingredients I’m “lured” into making it. Also, have you looked into fasting? Supposedly does a dopamine reset. Excellent video as always!
Thank you! Planning on doing a video about dopamine fasting soon.
@@adhdvision Awesome! Looking forward to it!
Yes, that's part of my strategy, also! It's easier for me to get started on tasks when I physically lay out the tools and materials ahead of time. It works MOST if not all of the time. 😊
I’m in overwhelm. Got diagnosed yesterday. Glad I found you early in this realization and acceptance journey.
2nd viewing, taking notes, “rewinding” when I lost focus. The dopamine connection I’ve only learned about recently. It makes sense now why if I don’t get started in the morning with what I need to do, I don’t get started. I have noticed that when I just do a few steps of something, I do come back to it more easily instead of trying to get it all done at once. Also, setting a time deadline for something like taking the much-needed walk helps. I set a goal of 20 minutes but often stay out longer. I look forward to exploring this further. I’m tired of not getting sh*t done. Thank you.
I've found that a good first easy step to getting moving on my work is cleaning up my workspace. It also helps me with transitions. When my space is a wreck, I will subconsciously avoid my office just so I don't have to look at it. But if i trick myself into going into my office to neaten it up, maybe rearrange my artwork and pen cups, move my monitor, etc... It will give me a renewed desire to be in my office enjoying the neat space.
A good task to give myself when I've just finished something that fried my brain is to dump out a drawer on the floor, throw stuff out, wipe out the drawer, and put everything back more organized.
While I dont think this would work for everyone with ADHD because a lot of people with ADHD seem to thrive in chaos, I've learned that disorganization makes my ADHD worse, and the best way to get moving on projects is to keep them contained (sometimes literally in boxes) and organized so that i know i have everything i need at hand and i wont have to go searching all over the house for a pair of scissors.
Your videos are gold dust. I have never come across a description of how ADHD minds work that is more exactly like my own. You describe my life, my reactions, my issues, even solutions I've stumbled across. This is so valuable. I am glad for you that you discovered this while you are still so young and can use this knowledge to progress.
Your advice on time-based goals and doing easiest things first are so helpful.
I think understanding the adhd comes first, understanding your adhd second, and then seeing what works for you comes last (and it’s a constant refinement of things that work for you). Thanks for the video! Always looking for different implementations I can try to assist my adhd.
This is the best video on the web.. but thank you a million
Damn. You actually did it.
You actually listed the real actual strategies that help. They all help, even just trying one of them is immeasurably helpful.
Thank you SO much!!
I thought this was another stupid clickbait video but you have such amazing points and techniques. I'm excited to give these a try.
BRO ONCE I DARE SHOWER THE DAY IS GONE!!😂
Wake up turn on my laptop, work few minutes/hours, then shower.
This is what works for me, sometimes
I came across something similar by accident for housework... 10min kitchen clean, 10min bathrooms clean, 10min washing clothes/ fold clothes or ironing, 10 min dust/ vacuum house, 10 min mop etc... if you don't find the task in 10, you must move to the next task even if by that stage you want to keep on doing it, great dopamine hits and majority gets done in an hour. Before this system I used to spin my wheels and not do any of it.
amazing video. very helpful. it's so funny that i found this video today, on my 2 year Duolingo streak anniversary. 730 days of studying Norwegian 🤣🤣
I love the "do something" principle and think that was the unlock switch for me.
Ironically (maybe not?), I'm watching this video because I have massive projects looming over me with deadlines that make me want to spiral, run away in the forest and never come back, or go back to bed. Even after 6 espressos.
But even though I might not be able to write all 7000 words of an article (and write two additional articles, write 3 newsletters, and do 3 hours of SEO work) in one day, I can at least DO SOMETHING to move all these projects forward.
Perfectionism is definitely the thing holding me back (and also the sheer quantity of work to do).
I started with the simplest task (uploading a consultation on RUclips to give the replay to my client, which is how I found the video -- waiting for the replay to upload/render).
Also, as a feral Trekkie, I love that you included Sir Patrick Stewart! I have a "First Contact" film poster behind me and a Captain Picard action figure next to me on my desk.
Strangely, it helps thinking these are orders from my captain, and I can't let down Picard 🤣
This video is SO dense, and I'm excited to come back to watch it fully.
I'm curious because I'm addicted to working and winning, but my therapist told me this is categorically a bad thing because I'm using work and chasing productivity/wins to avoid other areas of my life. I'll sometimes forget to go outside or talk to another person for 3+ days because I'm so wrapped up with work because I feel the NEED to work to feel worthy of being alive.
Where's the healthy line between taking consistent action vs falling into extended hyperfocus sessions?
Okay I sign up for event and it’s torture: almost 2 hours, no time codes, no easy way to change speed etc - it’s cruel even for neurotypicals, not to talk about ADHDers.
I found out that the same vid has time codes when you email it, but (but it’s not links like here on RUclips), but when you register you get the link without it
Use buddy double too, for everything I can - work amazing yeaah
We have been working out at home with my friend, in zoom, for 8 month. Before that I have so many struggles with that, amazing how it can get really easy with an online friend doing the same workout with you
All in all it was boring and too selling, sorry, but whis vid is much better.
@@user-zd2jl1ys9i yes you are totally right, i admit being scammed gave me a terrible feeling and punched my motivation ahaha but at least this video seems usefull :)
I watch all of your videos. Your efforts are really helpful. I'm applying what you taught in these videos and slowly my life is changing for the better. Keep it up bro.
I really appreciate your work! There are millions of people need your help and advices!
This makes so much sense to me. I’m going to have to rewatch it and try it out. Thanks!
Thank you❤
You have no idea how comforting and useful your videos are to me☺️
Great video, thank you so much for sharing all you’ve learned and for creating tools for us. You da best 🦋
Fellow ADHD Haver here. This video bothered me since it's release and it took me a few days to put it into words, but I finally figured it out.
This video is trying to solve the wrong problem. People with ADHD will simply never have "God Mode Productivity". And that's the issue with this video. It's trying to fit the square peg into a round hole. The 'square peg' being people with ADHD(who will have varying degrees of productivity), and the 'round hole' being expectations of productivity. And I use this example for a reason. ADHD people are sick of trying to cut parts of themselves away to fit into the mold of something else. Especially because WE SHOULDN'T HAVE TO. The world's expectations of productivity are for neurotypical people, not us. We will NEVER be that.
The true problem is getting neurotypical people to understand what daily life is like for ADHD people, and to re-work their expectations of it. Not make ADHD people live up to their standards. We have our own ADHD standards, and they have their own neurotypical standards. We need to reinforce and appreciate those differences.
Do it for you. Not for them. Be the best you can be. For you. Including, not losing the other good things about you for the sake of productivity. Use productivity to get done what matters for you. Use productivity to share the gifts you have, not to throttle them out of total existence. But, if working the system is what you have to do, then use this to help level out a bit the uneven playing field. Best wishes with all that you will do in many amazing ways throughout your ADHDer life.
With that attitude, you'd be fired. Nobody "has" to hire you and adjust to your missing deadlines and not completing the tasks they hired you to do. ... better to be an entrepreneur and have only yourself to rely on to do enough to get paid so you can pay your bills.
@@debbiedebbie9473 yeah, that's a problem. Also, I *am* self employed for the same reasons.
Thank you, I’ve watched so many videos regarding focus and consistency. This is the only one I’ve actually learned anything from
Where is the Notion template
Yes, please link the notion template! Was really looking forward to that. Thanks so much!
oh im not sure if he gives it to you, if you go to the link in the description you have to pay his course/couching (that technically you can try and get your money back) i assume there is when you access to it if you do.
apparently, he is lying. Very disappointing given that this video is actually good content, but he is using it to make you click on his course thing, which requires you to input your email adress and then sends you to a fake livestream. It is not live, it is pre-recorded, but it is made to appear as if it was live, chat and all. That also makes it impossible to skip ahead on what is actually a video.
I am genuinely upset that this guy is utilizing these sort of scam strategies.
@@vilukisu i understand your feelings i felt exactly the same. Sending you big hugs
I can really feel the connection to all of your videos - meaning it resonates so well with me, finally somebody who understands what it is to deal with an ADHD.
Thank you. The amount of editing you put into these videos is mind-boggling ❤
Thank you!!
The best I've learned yet.
So very, very clear and realistic..!
I just learned about adult ADHD in my early 50's and that I had it.
This opened a floodgate of understanding..why I seemed to be so different from family and friends, and I was also impressed at how well I had learned to cope "dragging this difference around" and impressed with so many of my personally developed strategies to make significant progress in my life and my career.
Retirement close to 70, threw me into a weird confusing conundrum.
At the time, there was little "online" for clarity.
After a year, when I went to take stock..I was literally shocked at the myriad of projects started..and not a single one completed..even though I clearly had a ton of time!! Plus, I seemed to be behind..in so much that clearly needed to be done😮
I thought I had unexpectedly become lazy..I didn't even think about the ADHD aspect of things!
I then spent a whole year tracking my ups and downs trying to get an observational handle on my " stuck" or "resist" or "zoning out" or, or, or..
Seeing my patterns and seeing also the triggers..helped a whole bunch, but didn't actually resolve as much as I hoped..Setting my own deadlines..was a joke, I had more fun setting them, than meeting them..
Without work and family mandatory deadlines..Whoa!
Bless you for this.
😊
These are genius tips!! Time based goal instead of outcome based ones. Starting with the easiest thing first to gain momentum. Breaking up tasks into the 3 first big step 🤯 10:07
By far the best ADHD tip/solution video I have ever watched. Going to try these. Thank you so much. Subbed.
OMG I just discovered your channel and this video blew my mind...I understood so many of my own behaviors and motivates me to seek help and get properly diagnosed. Thank you so much for sharing.
Man, I love your channel. Thank you
This is probably the most helpful adhd video It deals with a lot of misinformation about what helps, I used to overpack my mornings with self care trying to do everything. I also tried to break down tasks into every step which really f-cked with my motivation, the 3 step method helped me so much! Thanks this video seriously has changed my life! 😀
Fantastic stuff, so helpful. Thanks from Munich
Why the long intro :/
This video feels like it stretches onnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn
He has ADHD, course he's going to milk it, someone gave him a label to jump on.
This is gold. Thank you
This is what I really needed to hear today. Thanks. Going to try some more of your vids. ❤
Woah... i just hyper focused on this video when usually i tune out ADHD vids fast. Thanks for sharing this.. this EXPLAINS EVERYTHING!!
Thank you for your hard work! 🎉
These are SO helpful! Thank you!
Thank you so much for this video. I'm saving it so I can watch it again.
Amazing man! so glad I found you and your videos
This explains SO MUCH!!! And makes me feel so much Less of a failure. Thank you, this is great!! 🎉
This is the 2nd of your videos that I have watched. I am retired from being a public school teacher. I was asked on several occasions to fill out a questionnaire so the counselors could determine if a student might have signs of ADHD. Everyone of them was diagnosed with ADHD. I would joke with my colleagues that if this student has ADHD, then I did too. After watching these 2 videos, I am seeing that you have been struggling with the same "boredom" as me...throughout my entire life. Thanks for creating and sharing the videos. I think that I can learn more about myself and understand why at times I am super productive, and at other times I procrastinate.
Thank you so much for these very good points, i hope it'll help me 🙏
I felt relatable when I saw your shorts, but with how aggressively how you're selling your course, and how you spent the first minute of the video just to make sure people stay and your video does well with the algorithm, I feel less sure about trusting you.
But as soon as the video started, I started trusting you a bit more. Whatever you said, makes sense.
Yes i agreeand feel the same, i enjoyed the video and found it usefull and helpfull, sadly then I went to the link in the description looking for the "promised free Notion template" and as you explain he's promising free stuff just to sell you his "course/couching" idk what is it because i personally didn tget it
Fantastic advice. Thank you!
Hufe thanks to you, so helpful! May God bless you with everything! You do help people!
Congrats, this is the best useful ADHD video out there!
I don’t find the notion tracker you mentioned in the description. Can you send it or add it please? 🙏🏻
honestly idk if you can acces to it, i went to the link in the description expecting to find it but i found a web page to suscribe to and then a long vido (1:40 hs long) where he explain you why you should suscribe to "the revolution" not sure if its a course, couching or what because my ADHD butt coudnt watch the long video fully already knowing i was being scammed xDD
Finally feel so seen! Thank you 😊
Best adhd video ever! Thank you!
This kind of resonated with me. Thanks for this video. 👍🏻
Thank you for the video its really engaging and exciting for ADHD person like me.
i am also diagnosis with ADHD for attention level 3 not unable to focus and complete task within deadline.
Now this video gives me new insights and hope to work on myself and don't be ashamed of your ADHD you are wired differently.
You are awesome and thank you
Brilliant! Thank you.
Inconsistently consistent! HAHA perfect contradiction to "consistently inconsistent", which is one of my favorite ways to describe ADHD. 😆
I’m not diagnosed adhd but all of these apply to me and it’s very eye opening and super helpful 😮
Vielen Dank! Das ist dein bestes Video ever 🍀. Besser als das Webinar, an dem ich teilgenommen hatte.
Great video - love the channel.
I am trying to adapt these concepts to childcare, because small children are oftentimes sensory overwhelming and boring, even isolating, at the same time. It’s really worth it, because life with kids will be much more fun for everyone if you hack this. 🎉❤
All the things that he talked about I have personally experienced them and they indeed helped keep me consistent and focused but the problem is that I had no idea I was doing them and they were actual strategies, so I kept thinking it would just come back and go as it pleased. I even own a standing desk now and I have realized that changing from sitting to standing activates my brain and helps me re-focus on my current project. It's subtle things that help and you don't even realize it until someone experiences the same thing and says it out loud.
This just make sense so much.
As an older undiagnosed sufferer it amuses me that I have naturally come to out of these strategies before finding out I had ADHD
Thank you for releasing this to the public and not paywalling it. I'm going to tip after I've tried these strats
This was great. 🙏🏾❤️🔥
This is so true. I have recently amazed myself that I have been able to practice touch typing for hours every day for the last 8 weeks, I can't believe I haven't given up yet but as I keep improving there is a constant dopamine supply and I'm just riding the wave for now!! Not sure I've ever willingly stuck with anything for 8 weeks though ... I wish learning German was my hyperfocus but it just doesn't provide the dopamine haha
Any other ADD’er scanning the comments for the Coles Notes version?
Great video! It found me at the perfect time ✨🙌
wow. it took me two hours to get through this video! I can't wait to watch the rest! I didn't know I had this!
Thank you! Just found your channel! 😊
Thank you so so so much 😭😭😭
I get things done by using small tasks as my distraction from the larger task that I'm working on. I also get through long boring tasks by reciting the Greek alphabet, counting in Spanish, quoting Scriptures that I learned in church years ago and practicing my Oscar Awards speech 😂😂
I do the cold shower as well because it resets the parasympathetic nervous system and makes you feel calm! Incredibly useful for combatting anxiety.
