The reason that I can be effective at work while being ADHD is that I am very vulnerable to nerd sniping and I happen to be constantly nerd sniped into solving work related tasks :P
@mauve i have to do like 20,000 things not work related first to make myself do work 😂
@m455 the energy drinks help too :P
@mauve oh gosh yes coffee or redbull is my mana
@mauve I strategically leave my future self little nerd snipes, waiting to be found by future me, so that when future me isn’t interested in any of his assigned work, he can find one of them and work on it instead.
@dade Very good strategy! I love "future me" hacks like this. Do you have a task list to facilitate this or is it just your regular issue trackers on projects?
Imma see how I can incorporate it in my routines too 🙇
@mauve I usually have notes in my obsidian vault with like TODO, or sometimes they are just tucked away in code bases. I have to be really careful, because as soon as it becomes a jira ticket it becomes less fun and more like the work I am trying to avoid 😂 I also like to do some discovery on projects right away, that way when I go back in a few months it’s like “here’s what we know and what past you thought”
@mauve lucky 😂
