How to recognize a time: hyper-focus

Mndvnkd

Finding a timer that helps you is so awesome! I can totally empathize with the frustration of FORGETTING about a tool that you have that helps. With timers I find the best way to make sure it gets started 🤣 is to have multiple of them located where I used them. I used to have one that travelled to where I was needing it….. until it was lost I now have two in the kitchen one in the bathroom. They’re always out. The one I use for work is on my phones Lock Screen and has a parking spot coaster where it lives at work.

Hyperfocus is a gift!!!! Embrace it:D

I use an adhd timer ⏲️ . I work by myself from home, so I often have earbuds in listening to music. But this timer shows me how long I have left before I can get up and do whatever my adhd brain is telling me I need to do at the moment 🙃

I used to get annoyed with them but they really save my bum often.

I think I’ll try this because I constantly get distracted from what I’m actually trying to do and I get off topic and start getting lost in different things… I end up losing the day when it only feels like an hour. I become so upset with myself and feel less productive and embarrassed by the wasted days that I’ve accumulated!

I use timers on my phone or watch but this seems like a much better solution because you can’t “snooze” it. 😆

Thank you for your tips 😊👏🏻 I used to use pomodoro timers too but they stopped working on me after a while, I’ll try this! Thanks!
