Unlocking "Decision Leverage" for Better Focus and Flow: A Guide for ADHD Brains

Hey there, superstars! 🌟

Today, we're embarking on a journey inspired by none other than Immanuel Kant, the philosopher who profoundly influenced Western thought. His secret weapon? A meticulously crafted daily routine that fueled his focus and creativity. Just as Kant harnessed his routines to shape the world, you too can embrace the magic of routine to optimize your focus, productivity, and inner harmony while living with ADHD. Let's dive in! 🌈🌱

Embrace the Magic of Routine 🙏💖

Kant's daily rituals were simple yet powerful. He woke up early, savored a cup of tea, enjoyed his pipe in quiet contemplation, diligently worked on his lectures and books, and nurtured connections with friends. By eliminating recurring decisions within his daily rituals, Kant unlocked the hidden treasure of "decision leverage," allowing him to channel his energy into his purpose. Here's how you can apply this principle to your life:

Recognize Your Existing Routines 🧠💪

Identify the daily routines that already grace your life, like your morning ritual, afternoon workout, or evening wind-down. These are the foundations of your day.

Infuse Routines with Intention 🛠️🌈

Make the micro-decisions within these routines explicit. Decide on the details and sequence for each routine and write them down. This practice frees your heart from the uncertainty of "should I or shouldn't I?" and helps you flow effortlessly through your day.

Embrace the Beauty of Detail 🧘‍♀️🌍

Research on autism has shown that detailed instructions with visual aids and step-by-step guidance can create a sense of ease and lower cognitive load. As a radiant being with ADHD, adopting this approach can help you thrive.

Craft a Bulleted List for Each Routine 📝💡

By creating a lovingly crafted bulleted list for each routine, you can follow it with grace and liberate your cognitive resources for the pursuits that truly matter.

By automating medium and micro decisions in your daily routines, you can achieve a state of "superfluidity" and elevate your ADHD experience. This approach empowers your mind to soar into the realms of creativity, exploration, and the achievement of your heart's desires, instead of getting entangled in the web of trivial decisions.
