🐠 A wee share on Daily Metrics - the Check in Cheat Sheet💛
Okay, confession time. For weeks I'd been doing my daily check-in and scoring myself around a 4 or 5 on most things... and then wondering why my data looked a bit flat. 😅 I kept asking myself, "Am I actually being fair here? Or is my ADHD brain defaulting to 'meh, average' because I haven't really stopped to think about what the number means?" Then the gorgeous Pam dropped her post here on Skool with a scoring guide she'd been working on with Sage. I read it and went "ohhhh, THAT'S what a 7 feels like." 💡 Turns out I wasn't giving myself a fair rating. Not because I was being hard on myself (though, yeah, a bit of that too 🙈), but because I genuinely didn't know what a 6 for Focus was meant to feel like versus a 7. Was busyness the same as focus? (Spoiler: nope.) Was panic-doing the same as motivation? (Also nope.) I pinged her, we had a catch-up, and what started as "can I help you pretty this up into a formatted document?" turned into: ✨ Me formatting her beautiful content into a proper guide ✨ Adding a new section (pages 6 & 7) with the Analysis FAQ - the questions to ask Sage about your patterns once you've got a few days of data logged ✨ A totally unplanned wee session together on AI prompting across different tools, not just Sage Honestly, that collab was the warm fuzzy of the week. 🌻 I love helping people if I can - Not a Tech Whizz, and only in the early stages of learning about AI. What's in it: 📋 Scoring Guide - what each metric really measures, with anchors so you're not guessing 🪤 Common ADHD Rating Traps - like "I was busy = high focus" (spoiler: nope 😂) 📊 Analysis FAQ - the questions to ask Sage once you've got a few days of data The big realisation for me: vague scoring = ADHD brain either agonising, rushing, or quietly quitting the check-in. 🫠 Honest data beats perfect data. Even messy scores tell a story. Thanks @Pam Raney for the spark 💛 - linking your post below. https://www.skool.com/adhd/daily-check-in-metrics
