I remember the first time I asked my boyfriend how he manages to fall asleep so quick, and he answered "I just don't think about anything". I was FLABBERGASTED. I literally can't imagine how it works and I've asked him so many times to just explain it🤣

My bullet journal is still a huge piece of my organization system! A paper planner can definitely be very useful for ADHD.

Yes! And I like the variety that you can bring in with your own touches.

I use Focusmate too. Sometimes it's the only way I'll get anything done. I've struggled with my ADHD for years. I LOVE that they added Quiet Mode!!!

It would be interesting to see a video about your ADHD experience! I've also been diagnosed with the Inattentive type this year! Also if you've heard about the How to ADHD KZbin channel (and book!) I think you'd like it! 😊

The only thing Notion is good for in my experience is to make a very aesthetic customized database about what books I'm reading, as a private alternative to Goodreads. Aesthetics and fidgeting with it is the purpose and the fun of it.

This was great! Just want to say thank you for introducing me to Focusmate. I dunno how, but other than the accountability and motivation to focus on tasks, it also takes a lot of the anxiety and stress out of deadlines too.

It would be very interesting to see a video on your experience with ADHD! I would like to know why did you started suspecting you might have it and the challenges you have faced in language learning with ADHD

Xtiles looks so fun but I think I’m likely to have the same issue I had with notion and get so caught up in making it interesting that it ends up being its own form of procrastination. I use obsidian essentially the way you use the notes app tho

I loved this video. There are so many things that I would never have thought to use/never heard of. I'm going to definitely be trying these out! I especially like the desktop hour calendar tracker and that xtiles... I might try it out. Thanks!

Ah your thesis system is inspiring me to stay on track while writing a novel. I probably will require much less than five hours for myself a day but the goal being putting time in will motivate me to actually do it! Word count goals are good but I end up procrastinating them.

There's a lot of pomodoro music/study vids on YT that I will use when I really need to focus on getting a task done. That's kind of like my body doubling as the video creator is studying etc at the same time.

i use clickup for keeping myself on track, i found notion to take longer to set up than just doing the tasks 🤦🏻♀️ i saw xtiles considers itself a replacement for clickup, but i think it just depends on preference ☺️
@LindieBotes29 күн бұрын
Interesting! I thought ClickUp was more for businesses...how do you like using it for personal stuff? Anytips?
@taylortrent556828 күн бұрын
@@LindieBotes i don’t know if i can dump my brain using words 😂 i use a mixture of overarching tasks and then create subtasks within. i also really like the time tracking option and then there are timesheets when i can see how much time i spend on each task. so for something like language learning (task), vocab (subtask), shadowing (subtask), etc. i think my brain works more linearly so i need to see a line item for each task.

What meds are you taking for ADHD? Concerta seems so... primitive. But it seems like the only option in SA

I'm on a non-stimulant one, so not Concerta. I'm on Inir. It took like 3 months to kick in but it works so well

There's a lot of content about ADHD nowadays because it's finally destigmatized and people suffering from it finally can have alternatives. If you don't have it then stop trying to take the tools away from people who do just because it's 'mainstream'. If you don't benefit or identify with content you see just ignore it. Live and let live, don't be so insufferable. Thank you for recommending xTiles! I spent a good 2 hours using it and it's life changing!
