Section 2 of the Operating Manual just explained my evenings to me. The chips, the endless scroll until 23:30, the sense that night is the only time that's mine - none of it was weakness. It was my nervous system grabbing the fastest lever it had. And the calmest three hours I've had lately turned out to be the exact recipe I've been ignoring.

Hi my name is Nicole I am here to learn more and grow. I have had more diagnoses its been tough. But was finaly diagnosed with adhd depression and anxiety. So trying to find more ways and help to grow and feel better for my self and to have more peace and clarity

Had a cracking little body‑doubling session today with my two accountability buddies, Diana and Suliet. We meet twic a week. We were focussing on doing a refresh on our Commitment Letters and Ikigai… but honestly, the real star of the show was Bootzee, my current foster kitten. We’re all learning Miro together — three grown adults trying to figure out how to drag sticky notes, write in text boxes, around a digital whiteboard without accidentally deleting the whole thing. Meanwhile Bootzee is perched beside the screen, absolutely riveted by the tags popping up as @Diana Domantay and @Suliet Rivera add things to the board. Every zoom, every flicker, every colour change — he’s convinced it’s an interactive game designed purely for him. Bootzee’s Ikigai is very clear: Melt my heart. Look adorable. Try to convince me he should stay forever. And he’s doing an excellent job. But my purpose is the other side of the story — getting these abandoned little 2 or 3 week mites healthy, socialised, and ready for their furever homes. I thought it would be hard to give them up, but honestly, reminding myself that there are more kittens who need help makes it easier. We’re already on Batch 4… kitten #9… and we only started in December. And I’m loving it. So yes — today’s body‑doubling session was part productivity, part Ikigai reflection, part tech‑learning, and part kitten‑chaos. And honestly, that combination works for me. It’s exactly the kind of gentle accountability that keeps me moving. If anyone wants to join a future body‑doubling session (with or without feline supervision), you’re welcome.

📅 Daily Check-in - July 15, 2026 💭 Reflection: "Rough start - not great sleep and I realized after the live Q&A that what I've been feeling is a little disappointment. JT straightened me out, but I had been so very happy with my ikigai and all the things I did to launch my business - and I thought I was "fixed" and so the lessening of my enthusiasm has rattled me these last few weeks. So like being left handed and a Scorpio and a 4/1 manifesting generator and being incredibly near sighted, I am ADHD and that isn't going anywhere. I think finding all this at 72 is hard too - not like I have 30 work years to take advantage of whatever my adhd superpower is..... and so I've been hiding from the truth, hiding inside magical thinking, hiding in fiction . Well enuf of that! I have a whole new attitude and I'll be more present - I didn't stop checking in, I just stopped sharing.

This week I've been battling a cold. They never show up at a convenient time (if there is such a thing). I'm in the middle of preparing for the launch of a new program, so need to be able to think and focus, I have a deadline to meet for my artwork and it's also busy with family catch-ups as we have seven birthdays in the space of 2 weeks. With the sniffles, coughs, head congestion and general feeling unwell comes disturbed sleep, limited focus and lack of motivation. The old me would have swallowed the cold pills and pushed through Since being part of this group, though, I’ve noticed that I’m valuing myself, and my health, a little more. So, I’ve taken my foot off the accelerator. I’m still moving, just at a slower pace. I’ve let go of the expectation that everything needs to be finished or prepared well in advance, and I’ve allowed myself time to rest. The tasks will still be there tomorrow. Resting now means I’ll be in a much better place to deal with them when I’m feeling well again. What are you more likely to do when you’re unwell? Push through or take time to heal?
