Omg the “just setting 3 objectives a time thing” really work on a to do list. I’ve had the best, productive week. I put them in a huge board right in front of my computer

E.g.

11am, I put objectives until 3pm. Can put easy ones too (like drinking 500ml of water).

I do the same and write down the top 3 things I need to get done that day. Definitely helps me stay focused on what’s important and not get distracted by the numerous small things that pop up but can wait.

Same McK1, then I’d get stressed that I have a bazillion tasks left and I’m still on the first one (even if that was the hardest)! 3 immediate focus items is so much better

Additional Posts in ADHD Consultants

Hey all just FYI my psych told me in my appointment that stimulants ordered from Express Scripts often give patients problems...including me. Felt like I was taking something totally different.

Hello All - I struggle with time management. I take medication but I have no idea whether a task will take 40 mins or 4 hours. Because of this, I over commit and under deliver. Also, having been on the receiving end of criticism, over time I have developed a perfectionist streak. I won't turn it in if it is good enough. How do you break out of this habit?

Any resources to help the brain structure tasks and make better estimates? Much appreciated, thanks!

I recently got diagnosed with ADHD. I'm 31 and found this only because b school and post mba consulting job was/is much more challenging than anything I did before. What I'm confused about is that even as a teenager I could read entire books overnight. But the last two years of high school I started selectively zoning out and the problem has become worse since. I just realised it now. My doctor has suggested treating depression (I was also unaware of this) with Wellbutrin first (contd)

It seems rude when she says it, and she follows it up with “I say that because I love you” which i feel is so unprofessional all around. Anyone have guidance on how to handle this?
