thank you!!! im so bad at getting myself to use a planner consistently but i need to i can see how it would help

in terms of managing work, I think the best advice I can give is to outsource accountability: find people who are invested in your wellness as much as your success, and work with them to create a support structure! if you have or are able to make friends who also have ADHD or trouble with time management, it’s a great idea to form a mutual alliance where you check in on each other to see if you’re meeting goals. lots of schools will offer mentoring along these lines, but I strongly prefer to do it with my peers because it feels like there’s less judgement if I don’t accomplish what I said I would. adults who do time management stuff professionally can be very condescending and I personally do not find it motivating when I feel like I’m letting someone down. that said, positive reinforcement is the way to go! give yourself treats when you accomplish tasks because at the end of the day you are just a puppy with a different brain structure :) make sure to reward yourself for intermediate goals, not just the big stuff. go do something fun, have a snack or drink you like, and get some fresh air in between working. when you finish an assignment take some time for yourself, hang out with friends, watch a movie or show, have a dance party, whatever you prefer! just try to set limits so you can create habits around impulse control. speaking as someone who did not use these strategies and struggled greatly through college ahahaha

ohh interesting! tysm!!
