ADHD and Tips with Big Tasks

Those with ADHD have issues with executive functioning. One being task initiation. With a big task, try:

1. Breaking it down into bite-sized pieces and using a time blocker.

2. Body double

3. Try to make the task fun (more stimulating)

4. Take breaks, and if you find yourself distracted, positively encourage yourself to get back to the important task.

5. BE SELF-COMPASSIONATE - do not beat yourself up because you struggle with getting tasks done. You're not a problem, failure, or a disappointment.

6: Awareness: If there is a task that continues to be delayed, bring awareness around what might be leading to this, such as self-talk, expectations, and emotions around the task.
