ADD Tip 10

Don’t let yourself fall victim to “ADD brain melt”!

For example: the other day I had to unload clean dishes from the sink and put them away. It looked like there was a lot of dishes. I briefly felt overwhelmed and almost walked away from them.

If you ever get that feeling about a task or activity, take a breath and think for a moment. Just because it looks like a lot of work, doesn’t mean it IS a lot of work! Don’t let your brain psych you out. If you find yourself having a “brain melt” moment, taking a moment to recognize it and then work past it can really help you get things done.
