“Don’t think of an elephant!”
As someone with #adhd, one of the hardest things for me to do is to STOP thinking about something, and focus on something else—or nothing at all, when it’s time to rest.
Being able to put an idea on the mental shelf and trust that there will be another occasion to pick it up later is ridiculously hard. It’s like stopping a freight train—it takes miles due to the inertia.

in reply to El Duvelle • • •@elduvelle It does. But my worry becomes: what if I forget to check my notes?
My Reminders/Todo list is a double-edged sword. It both acts as a place where I stash thing I need to do, and also a depressing reminder of all the stuff I need to do 🥲
I have to force myself to look at my Todo list.

Something new to hyper focus on, oh my. Good or bad.
Recently took something off my todo list as done after 22 years on there. Lost a while hyper focusing on that.

We were recently discussing the "getting things done" system: todoist.com/productivity-metho…
I wonder if it could help you? (Or myself really - I need to try it 😅)
