I have ADHD. That means some days, my brain looks at a simple to-do list and turns it into a mental war zone. Yesterday, I sat down, opened Notion… and boom — 12 tasks. My brain started doing its thing: panic mode, overthinking. But then I remembered something I read from the Stoic philosopher Seneca: “We suffer more in imagination than in reality.” So I tried something simple: I picked one task — just emails — and told myself, "This is the only thing that exists right now." Not the calls. Not the edits. Not the five other projects screaming for attention. Just. Emails. Guess what? I knocked them out in 20 minutes. No anxiety. No guilt. No spiral. Just flow. If you’ve got an ADHD brain, you don’t need more productivity hacks. You need focus filters. Shrink the battlefield. One task. One focus. One win. That’s how you beat overwhelm — the Stoic way.
