Can confirm after 4 days of procrastination, I did a weeks worth of work in 6 hours today. I’m convinced if I could get over the procrastination hump I could solve all the worlds problems and probably learn how to breathe fire 🤣🤣

I always appreciate that feeling where I finally start working on something and it's really not the drag I thought it would be. And I kick myself for not starting it when I should have. But weirdly, there is that strange benefit when the time pressure just propels you along.

I completed my interview loop at Google on August 12, 2022.

I was informed on September 8th that the hiring committee is scheduled the next day (September 9th) and that I can expect a final feedback latest by September 12th. I wasn’t informed of the results and reached out, but the recruiter isn’t replying to my emails. Does this mean I was rejected?

Had my 1:1 with my People Lead yesterday to prepare for talent discussions. Said I had a great year - but need to work on being consistent. She said when I’m engaged it’s great but need to keep it going. I’ve mentioned my ADHD previously but I’m sure she doesn’t know all the components of what that means. We’ve had org issues - no clear role descriptions or expectations. Yes I do have a hard time staying engaged (and I’m medicated - Vyvance in the am, dextroamphetamine at noon). Thoughts?
