The most productive people in the world, they don't rely on discipline and brute force to stay focused. They've found hacks to trick their brain into this superhuman level of productivity. So I'm going to share with you 10 hacks that will make you more focused even if you have crippling ADHD like I do. These are the strategies that I use to go from an ADHD mess to a hyper-focused CEO.
You can start using these today to stop fighting against your brain and start using it as a superpower. So with that being said, these are the 10 hacks to unlock insane focus. Welcome to the Martell Method. I went from rehab at 17 to building a $100 million empire and being a Wall Street Journal bestselling author.
In this podcast, I'll show you exactly how to build a life and business you don't grow to hate. And make sure you don't miss anything by subscribing to my newsletter at martellmethod.com. Starting with hack number one, make a not to do list. Here's my philosophy. Focus is a filter, not a muscle. Stop trying to brute force yourself into focus.
Decide what you don't want to do so that you can make decisions quicker. If every new decision comes into your life and you have to sit there with the mental overload and brain powder, try to make a good decision because you haven't set up a filter, it's going to drain your energy. To me, a new yes, is a no to your dream and a no is a yes to your goals.
If you think about the most successful people, you see that success is a subtractive process, not an additive process. You don't do more to win, you do less, but you make the things you say no to the right yeses. So when people ask me like, hey, Dan, what did you do to be successful to drive those cars or fly around on your plane? It's what I don't do. I don't drink. I don't gamble.
I don't play video games. I don't vape. I don't do a bunch of stuff that would impede me from winning. And it requires that to have the level of focus we're talking about. The way I think about it, you know that game Plinko, where you have like these balls you drop at the top and it hits all these different pins and it goes all over the place. That's how most people live their life.
What I want you to do is break out all the other options, which is those pins, drop the ball, go straight to the middle. If you think about each one of those as being a energy unit of focus, then you would just literally focus and stack and focus and stack instead of spreading yourself thin across so many different options. So what goes on the not to do list? For me, number one is low value tasks.
Anything that can pay anybody else to do for a little bit amount of money or just use an app to get brought to me or get done, I'm not doing it. Number two is bad habit and vices. Some of you guys have bad habits of not confronting people that say shit about you. Some of you have vices like you literally lay in bed and hit the snooze button 15 times before you get out of bed.
Those things have to go. The third is energy vampires. When I'm interacting with somebody, they either give me energy or they take my energy. The people that take my energy, see ya. Which brings us to hack number two, create focus triggers. Most people wait for inspiration to do work or hope they'll magically get in the zone randomly to start doing the work.
