One of my biggest ADHD-related struggles is prioritizing tasks and dealing with overwhelm. So much seems equally important/urgent all the time, it's exhausting. What has helped you with this?

How many are you are as stubborn as I am, and use Center View to leave open the current task until you actually get the darned thing done? Any other Notion hacks? I can share with you a few of mine, too

Dad, you can't even do one pushup!" That's what my kids said to me 60 days ago. And you know what? They were absolutely right. I couldn't do a single pushup. Not one. Zero pullups. My ADHD brain had convinced me that consistency was impossible, that I'd quit after a week like every other "challenge" I'd started. But something clicked that day. Maybe it was the look in my child's eyes. Maybe it was finally being tired of my own excuses. I decided to prove to myself—and to them—that everything is possible. The Challenge: 365 Days of Calisthenics Every. Single. Day. No matter what. No gym required. No equipment needed. Just me, my body, and the commitment to show up. Day 1: 0 pushups (couldn't even do one) Day 60: 40 pushups in a row 💪 But here's what the numbers don't tell you... What I've Really Learned Your ADHD brain WILL try to sabotage you. It'll whisper: - "You're too tired today" - "You can start fresh tomorrow" - "One day off won't hurt" But consistency isn't about perfection—it's about showing up. Some days I've done my workout at 11:47 PM in my pajamas. Some days it was just 5 pushups because that's all I had in me. Some days I've done it in a hotel room, in a parking lot, or during my lunch break. The location doesn't matter. The time doesn't matter. What matters is that I kept my promise to myself. The ADHD Advantage Our ADHD brains actually have superpowers for this stuff once we crack the code. ✅ Hyperfocus kicks in: Once I start, I often do MORE than planned ✅ Novelty seeking: I constantly switch up exercises to keep it interesting ✅ All-or-nothing thinking: Instead of fighting it, I used it (365 days, no exceptions) ✅ Immediate feedback: Physical progress is instant dopamine What My Kids Are Learning Every morning when I drop and do my pushups, my kids see: - Promises can be kept - Hard things are possible - Adults can change and grow - Consistency creates miracles - Yesterday, my youngest started doing "baby pushups" next to me.

Working on Lamborghini projects taught me something crucial: You never go from 0 to peak performance instantly. Even the most sophisticated V12 engine needs a proper warm-up sequence. Skip it, and you risk damage. Rush it, and you get suboptimal performance. Your ADHD brain works exactly the same way. The Problem with "Just Start" Traditional productivity advice says: "Just start! Dive right in!" But here's what happens when I try that approach: - Stare at the screen for 20 minutes - Check my phone 47 times - Reorganize my desk instead of working - Feel like a failure before I even begin Sound familiar? The Automotive Solution: The 5-Minute Warm-Up Protocol In automotive engineering, we have specific warm-up sequences. Your brain needs the same systematic approach. Here's my ADHD Engine Warm-Up (takes exactly 5 minutes): Minute 1: System Check - Clear your workspace (like checking fluid levels) - Close unnecessary browser tabs (remove performance drains) - Put phone in another room (eliminate interference) Minute 2: Prime the System - Write down your ONE main task for this session - Set a timer for your work session (25-45 minutes) - Take 3 deep breaths (oxygenate the system) Minute 3-4: Gentle Activation - Open the document/tool you need - Write one sentence or take one small action - Don't aim for perfection—just get the engine turning Minute 5: Full Engagement - Start your timer for 5 minutes (warm-up your brain) - Put on the headphones with white noise - Begin working on your main task - After 5 minutes start your 25-45 minute timer - Trust that momentum will build Why This Works for ADHD Brains 1. Predictable Routine Like a car's startup sequence, your brain learns the pattern and prepares automatically. 2. Removes Decision Fatigue No more wondering "where do I start?" The sequence is always the same. 3. Builds Momentum Gradually Instead of demanding instant focus, you're warming up your attention system.
