Explore SHIFT here: https://tracyotsuka.com/shift_Have you ever had a really productive day and still felt like you didn’t do enough?You answered the emails. You made the calls. You went to the meeting. You finished the project. Maybe you even did the thing you had been putting off for weeks. And still, by the end of the day, your brain was already moving on to everything you missed, forgot, or still needed to do.Today, I want to talk about why success does not always feel like success for ADHD women.Our brains are often scanning for what is unfinished, unresolved, or potentially threatening. So even when we complete ten things, we can still end the day focused on the one thing we did not get done.But today, I want you to practice noticing what is going right. Noticing your progress. Noticing the effort it took. Noticing the evidence that you are capable, that you do follow through, and that you can do difficult things.Because success does not create confidence when we ignore it. Success creates confidence when we notice it.If you have ever struggled to feel proud of yourself, even after doing so much, this episode will help you pause long enough to collect the evidence your brain keeps overlooking.Timestamps:[00:00 – 03:58] Why Success Does Not Always Feel Like Success[03:58 – 06:22] How Negativity Bias Keeps Us Focused on What Is Unfinished[06:22 – 07:15] Breathwork Practice[07:15 – 08:28] Gratitude Check-In and Noticing What You Have Done[08:28 – 10:10] Reassessing Your SUD Score and Collecting the Evidence[10:10 – 11:00] Closing Reflection and SHIFT InvitationADHD isn’t a productivity problem.
