The system is broken
Most productivity advice assumes your brain works a certain way.
"Just use a planner!" (But what if your brain doesn't believe in future dates?)
"Try meditation!" (But what if sitting still makes everything worse?)
This book exists because we deserve strategies built for our actual brains, not the ones we're supposed to have.
Workplace Reality
Traditional productivity advice doesn't work when your brain processes differently. We need systems built for how we actually think.
Home Life
Your living space isn't messy because you're lazy. It's chaotic because traditional organizing systems ignore how ADHD brains actually function. We need home systems that work with hyperfocus, not against it.
Relationships
"Why didn't you just tell me?' becomes exhausting when your brain struggles with communication timing and emotional regulation. We need relationship tools that honor neurodivergent processing, not shame it.
