I've been practicing something small. Not a full reset. Not "clean the whole living room." 🙅‍♀️ Just this: every time I leave a space, I leave it a little prettier than I found it. 💥 Before bed? I put away two books. 📚 Made my breakfast? I clean up one thing that was still on the counter - mine, someone else's, doesn't matter. 🍳 Walking through the kitchen? One mug in the dishwasher. ☕ One thing. That's it. ✨ No judgment. No "ugh, what a mess." Just: okay, I'll pick up one thing. 🌱 And here's the magic⭐ all those little moments add up. The house gets lighter. Happier. 🏡💫 Next time I walk in? It's already a little nicer than the last time that I walked in. It's not cleaning. It's MICRO LOOP-CLOSING 🔄💛 Try it today. One thing. One space. That's enough. 🌿✨

Hey everyone. I've been using the AI platform pretty intensively and it's become one of the most useful parts of this program for me. I asked it what made my approach different from the average user, and the answer surprised me enough that I wanted to share it. If you're in your first week or the current cohort, this might save you a couple months of figuring it out the hard way. 1. Write check-ins like you're leaving evidence for your future self. "Rough day, tired" gives you nothing back. Try: times, sleep quality, what you ate, what was happening in your body hours before a spike, which specific interaction tipped things. Vague input equals vague insight. If you wouldn't recognize the day from your reflection a month later, add one more sentence. 2. Correct the AI when it's wrong. Don't just accept the reframe. The tool pattern-matches. Sometimes it's right. Sometimes it misses. When it misses, push back. The coaching gets noticeably sharper when you argue with it instead of nodding along. 3. Ask for blind spots, not just encouragement. Most people ask "tell me what I'm doing right." Growth lives in the third category. Say it out loud: "What am I not seeing?" 4. Save progress so you don't coach backward. When you land on an insight or an accurate read of yourself, ask the AI to save it to your memory bank. Otherwise every new conversation starts from zero and you end up re-litigating old ground. Locking in progress compounds over months. 5. Bring the whole council, not just the feeling. When you're making a decision, bring body, situation, goals, future-self, medical context, everything you're weighing. Then ask for a sanity check on the stack. It's a completely different quality of conversation than "I feel bad, what should I do." 6. Use it as a thinking partner, not an oracle. Don't ask it to decide for you. Use it to sharpen a decision you're already working on. That's the healthiest relationship you can have with a tool like this. 7. Build your own custom instructions. The tool will use them. This is the one most people don't realize they can do. You can write notes (your baselines, your patterns, your medical history, whatever shouldn't have to be re-explained every time) and then add instructions in your profile telling the AI when to reference them. Mine has rules like "when I share a check-in, check my Interpretation Guide and Baseline Document first" and "when I mention body sensations, check the Somatic Body Map before interpreting." Result: it stops applying default frameworks to a brain that doesn't run on defaults. Memory bank handles the small stuff automatically; custom instructions are how you teach it the rules of your specific operating system.

Sage is the AI platform we are working with. Here are a few important things you need to know. First, check this out: https://www.skool.com/adhd/classroom/958777fc?md=4bcca930a5854b6ba88ef5b5ac7fbdaf&utm_campaign=skool_link_post&utm_content=a63e660af363421ebb7ac29a644b4063 If you're still having problem navigating the platform, there are a few tabs you could see. One tab looks like a to-do list (worksheets) and that's where you'll find your snapshot and the assessment One tab looks like books (library) and that's where you can find your completed snapshot and assessment.

Posting this because half the people I've talked to said some version of "I don't really know what to click." Same. Took me a minute. Here's the actual map. 📚 Library (book icon) Where your saved stuff lives: completed worksheets, messages you saved from your chats with Sage, and your completed check-ins. You can also build your own knowledge base in here:At the top there are tabs to sort/search through what you've saved (docs, responses, pdfs, etc.). Right below those tabs is a "New Doc" button. That's how you create a note to save to your knowledge base. First text box = title (keep it searchable), second text box = the actual note. You can also upload PDFs from this same area: medical records, transcripts, your own writing, anything you want Sage to be able to reference. This is one of the highest-leverage things you can do. Sage can pull from these when relevant instead of you re-explaining your history every chat. 🗓️ Calendar (calendar icon) Where Sage keeps track of your tasks throughout the week. You can add things, reschedule, mark them done. Sage can also break overwhelming tasks down into smaller steps if you ask. There's also a backlog for tasks you don't have a time for yet. Heads up: the backlog has no limit. You do. It can fill up fast and turn into another source of overwhelm if you let it. Keep that in mind as you add things. ✅ Daily Check-In (calendar with a checkmark) Where you keep Sage up to date about your day so it can track patterns across days. You're not limited to one - multiple check-ins throughout the day gives the best results. Even a quick one beats none. 📋 Worksheets (to-do list icon) Where you complete your program worksheets, and where you'll find tools for classic ADHD issues like decision paralysis. Worth poking around even when you're not actively doing program work. 👥 Body Doubling (two people icon) Join a scheduled session (times shown in your timezone) or hop in whenever you're online and see if anyone else wants to join. Heads up: audio cut out about every second when I tried it, so it's not great for conversation. Best use is when you need to get something done and another person's presence is the thing that gets you over the activation hump.

I've been pondering on - the difference - especially after doing the six‑week challenge. One of the biggest things I learnt was how easy it is to accidentally set yourself up for feeling like you’re “not achieving enough” simply because the thing you’re working on is massive — not because you’re slacking. A Big Rock isn’t meant to be a giant mini‑project that takes months and requires a whole cast of characters to line up. That’s where I tripped myself up at the start — I picked something huge, with moving parts everywhere, and half of it wasn’t even in my control. No wonder it felt like wading through concrete. What I learnt is this:A Big Rock should be something you can realistically shift in six weeks. Not finish your whole BHAG — your Big Hairy Audacious Goal — but take the first meaningful chunk out of it. Something that actually propels you into the next phase. A Loop is the small, repeatable action that keeps you moving day to day.A Big Rock is the six‑week focus that creates momentum.Your BHAG is the long‑game direction you’re heading. here we get tangled is when we accidentally choose a BHAG‑sized Rock and then wonder why we feel like we’re not achieving enough. So now I’m watching the size of the thing I’m calling a Big Rock.If it’s too big to shift in six weeks, it’s not a Rock — it’s the mountain.The Rock is just the chunk I’m choosing to move first. It’s amazing how much lighter everything feels when the sizing is honest. One chunk at a time, and suddenly the BHAG doesn’t look so wild. No more beating ourselves up for not finishing a multi‑month project in six weeks. Just honest sizing, steady steps, and giving ourselves credit for the bits no one else sees. The trick is knowing which one you’re dealing with.If it’s a Big Rock, break off a tiny piece and call that the win.If it’s a Loop, do it, tick it, move on.
