One of my favorite sayings from Brendan Mahan of the ADHD Essentials podcast is that ADHD is life on Hard Mode.The executive dysfunction that comes with ADHD makes everything just a little bit more difficult. From doing the dishes to filling out tax returns we find ourselves needing to put in more effort than our neurotypical peers.But what’s important for us to remember is that while these things can absolutely be harder for us to do, it doesn’t mean it’s impossible.Today we’re going to be exploring this idea of doing hard things - what makes something difficult and how we can work on moving ourselves through that process.Support me on PatreonAsk me a question on my Contact PageFind the show note at HackingYourADHD.com/hardthingsThis Episode's Top TipsIt is important for us to define what we find being hard because when we choose to believe something should be easy we tend not to give it the attention that it deserves.Our problems can’t be solved until we acknowledge them as problems - but also can’t solve those problems unless we put forward the effort of defining them and acknowledging the underlying issues.Define what done looks like for a task and be sure to be mindful of how that can be functional in your life.
