What's your day to day? [View all]
Like most people, I find myself pretty busy from day to day with a constant to do list running through my head. Higher stress days, where I feel I have no time to breathe, kick my add into overdrive and then I start making mistakes and feeling overwhelmed. Yesterday was one of those days, on the end of one of those weekends, but eventually I just told myself that letting some things slide would not be the end of the world. Plus, I knew I would find a little more time today to get myself back together again.
A printed list helps me focus on days like yesterday. Helps me knock off some of the less time consuming things to take care of.
Another huge help to me is down time. Not literally sleeping or sitting but just a day like today where I can plug away at things with no major consequences if I haven't met a deadline or if I've forgotten something I planned to do.
What are some of your strategies? And if you have kids with ADD, do you schedule down time for them too?
