That's like the motto for the book I'm reading about being an adult with ADD. I just read about the 3 ways inattention (one of the three major symptoms off ADD) and it was totally about me. It explained me practically spot on! I think if I can keep myself reading it, it'll be valuable to me. Because I DO have a serious issue with focusing on one task most of the time. Hence why so many of my summer chores haven't been started yet.
here's the conversation I have with myself daily: "
I can't start cleaning up my room until I get all the clothes put away. I can't put all the clothes away until I go through them all and get rid of a bunch of them. Well that's a big task so it's too late to start now."
Then in the morning I'll wake up and be like "I'm so tired,I need to sleep more." Next thing you know it's the middle of the next afternoon and IT STARTS ALL OVER AGAIN!!
My dad's always been a big fan of telling me "Why do you always make things so hard on yourself?" and "you just have to buckle down" and like Nike "just do it!" He doesn't understand that I just can't! I can't explain it other than it feels like there is just something stopping me from doing whatever "it" is.
Dear Lord, Oh please, oh please, oh please help me to stick with this book and to find not only some comfort, but some help too. Amen.
