Introduction: Meet the ADHD Villains
Imagine waking up each day, ready to conquer the world, but instead, you’re faced with an invisible gang of villains. These villains don’t wear capes or masks, but they manage to sneak in and disrupt every part of your day. For anyone with ADHD, these villains—Procrastination, Time Blindness, Emotional Overwhelm, and Distractibility—are all too familiar. Let’s meet them, and more importantly, learn how to beat them at their own game.
Villain 1: Procrastination
Procrastination has a sneaky way of making even the most urgent tasks feel like they can wait until tomorrow… or the next day… or maybe next week. For Emma, a college student with ADHD, Procrastination would convince her to scroll social media for hours before finally starting her assignments at midnight.
How to Defeat It:
Emma started using the "two-minute rule"—if a task could be done in two minutes or less, she did it right away. For bigger tasks, she broke them down into bite-sized pieces. Setting small, manageable goals made the villain of Procrastination much less powerful.
