Gabor Maté has described ADHD as "forgetting to remember the future." If it's not written down, I'm not getting it done.

I totally agree that the goal is not finding the best organizational system in the world, but the set of tools and systems that work best for you. As they say, "the imperfect plan that you do implement is always better that the perfect plan you never stick to"
I was a big fan of using a legal pad for my work notes until I bought my Supernote. I've been Bullet Journaling for 5 or 6 years now. I've only been using Notion for a few months, and my personal to do list lives there now... with many other lists in varying states of use. @wsgac recommends
Org-mode, and I know a lot of people love Obsidian and other Markdown note taking tools.Not me wanting to save this article to look back on later but worried I won’t remember where to find it
This is beautiful, the way I resonated with all 6 chapters, it actually brought tears. I feel less alone, having someone understand what it's like dealing with ADHD is really nice.
I really like Getting Things Done. For me it’s not as hard to stick with as other things I’ve tried, and it’s easy to restart after wandering off for a while. It also works with pretty much any todo list or note-taking medium so I can try all of the different apps without having to change the system.
Truly needed this to spontaneously appear on my time line! I'm finding things extremely difficult to navigate around studying computer science, catching up with late assiand adhd!! Thanks for helping! Taking notes and creating lists even if it's for menial things like taking meds and remembering to shower that day is really helping bring some order to the inside of my chaotic brain😋
Love the way your organized your list in notebook. Very tidy and easy to look at.
This was great, thank you, all very relatable!
I sooo needed this.... I'm going to try everything
Thank You!
Very interesting series! Can relate to some parts.. And in general, it confirms that you never know what battles one is fighting, especially when it comes to those whose success you might be trying to replicate.
However, the best part for me is the vidget at the top about articles in the series, didn't encounter this before and will definitely research how to use it :)
Love this series!
Now I can get rid of guilty - and call it ADHD )
thanks a lot!
