When it’s hard to get something done, I find it easier to just do one minute of it, I don’t have to finish it. My brain seems to handle one minute rather than doing a whole task, which can be too overwhelming sometimes. And then later on do another minute and so forth. This way at least I get started rather than put it off or not do it at all.
-I also find if a task seems overwhelming it helps to ask what is the first micro step I can take, for example grab a pen, or get some paper. You can continue on more micro steps if you want.
-Super deep brown noise with headphones help me focus better, also 8D music, and 852 hz frequency helps quieten my mind to get things done.
-If it’s hard to start cleaning grabbing a wet wipe and wiping something random helps put me in a doing mood, or just do one dish, or fold one piece of clothes.
-Also setting a timer to ping every 10 minutes to say, ‘ok what am I doing now’ to help keep track of time. Or do 10 minutes on, 10 minutes off for getting things done.
Hope something helps someone.
