Trying a new strategy to help with my ADHD.
Maybe it’s not so new; I may have tried it before? Maybe it’s a form of mindfulness?
Anyway, it’s pretty simple.
I occasionally stop whatever I’m doing wherever I am and pause.
I don’t do anything, just pause. Five or ten seconds.
No schedule, no trigger, no anchor. Just whenever.
I like it. It helps me slow down and helps me focus.
Now the trick is to remember to keep doing it so it will become a habit.
Couldn’t be simpler.

PS O the Day:
I’m trying to think of a strategy to help me remember to do it until it’s a habit. I don’t want to use an anchor. Is there another way?

My parents kept telling me, “Late on you’ll understand.”
They were wrong.

maybe anchor it to whenever you’re feeling overwhelmed? or particularly mindful/at peace.
