new adhd/mental illness/disability hack for your next semester
instead of focusing on getting shit done, focus on studying for at least 10 (20/30 whichever sounds easy to you) minutes a day. not even like the 5 minute rule, not to get started, but literally only 10 minutes a day. you won't get everything done this way, but you will do at least some part of it by the time it's due tomorrow. you're probably still gonna have to work your ass off on the last day, but it's gonna be a few hours, not the whole night
I find it so discouraging to focus on the task, it feels like it's gonna take so much time and it stops me from even starting, so when it's due tomorrow I literally have to start from zero and do the whole thing, when I stop focusing on the end goal of completing it, it looks... like it's a thing I can actually do, yk. and things actually start getting done somehow
again, it's not to get started, not to trick your brain into starting, it's to do at least something
just. literally. 10. minutes.
may it help you in the new year
