022 - My Process - A Deep Dive Into My ADHD Management Process

Managing ADHD with Design Thinking and Daily Routines In this episode of the ADHD Goals podcast, Laurence discusses creating a coaching program combining fitness and exercise with managing ADHD due to their benefits in boosting dopamine levels. The importance of understanding ADHD's impact on setting and achieving goals, and the struggle with procrastination and motivation, are highlighted. Key concepts from Daniel Kahneman's 'Thinking Fast and Slow' and Professor Stephen Peters' 'The Chimp Paradox' are elaborated to explain the two systems of thinking: the instinctual and the rational.  Laurence employs visual aids and metaphors, such as a bucket (representing cognitive energy) and a chimp (symbolising system one behaviour), to explain how these systems function in daily life and how they interplay with ADHD. Strategies such as designing emergency backpacks for problematic situations, improving dopamine levels through health-conscious methods, and forming visual reminders for goals are suggested to better manage procrastination and improve goal attainment.  The episode also introduces a forthcoming 14-day challenge aimed at establishing productive daily routines for people with ADHD, emphasising small, manageable steps and the avoidance of overwhelming schedules. The challenge is designed to sequentially build morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend routines that infuse beneficial dopamine practices to improve overall well-being and goal achievement for individuals with ADHD.
