🧠 Make the next step obvious so it’s easy to start.

When you live with ADHD, it’s not laziness that stops you—it’s invisible barriers. The trick is to make the next step crystal clear and effortless.

Put your workout shoes by the door. Keep clean mugs next to the coffee maker. Leave your to-do list open where you’ll see it first thing.

Small adjustments can remove friction and turn “I’ll do it later” into “I’ve already started.”

💡 Ever notice how it’s easier to get things done when someone else is in the room?

That’s the power of body doubling — working alongside another person (in person or virtually) to stay focused and follow through.

Whether you’re folding laundry, tackling paperwork, or writing that report, having a “body double” helps anchor your attention and lower the barrier to starting.

Find a friend, coworker, or accountability buddy and give it a try—you might be surprised how much easier it feels to get things done together.

Perfectionism and ADHD often go hand in hand—and they can stall progress before it even begins. Self-compassion means letting “good enough” be enough for now. You’d never call your best friend "dumb" for forgetting something—so why say that to yourself?

Treat yourself with the same kindness you’d offer someone else, finish what you can today, and trust that refinement can come later.

💬 Living with ADHD can affect both partners in a relationship—but understanding the “why” behind behaviors can change everything.

Supporting your partner doesn’t mean neglecting yourself. The healthiest relationships thrive when both people are cared for, supported, and understood.

Written cues and checklists are powerful supports for executive function. When you put your tasks in writing, you take the pressure off your working memory—so your brain can focus on doing instead of remembering. ✍️

Try posting sticky notes where you’ll see them or using a digital checklist you enjoy checking off. Little systems like these make a big difference! ✅
