If so, how's every responsibility in your life holding up while you drown in the hyperfocus?

Do you have ADHD and also meditate?

What Is your meditation technique?

What effect does the meditation have on you?

What effect does the meditation have on your ADHD?

Fucking slaps.

I'm sure I'm not alone in spending more time building structures to be productive than actually producing. I'm always trying to find ways to "trick" myself into getting things done, with varying levels of success.

For me, it's always a struggle to keep going with anything once the novelty wears off. Finding new ways to structure and gamify work helps for a while, but very few things stick more than a few months. That said, every once in a while I find a thing that does become an actual tool in my toolset. I'm thinking specifically of Pomodoro timers for me. If I don't want to spend too much time hyper focusing, the intervals help me break out and evaluate, rather than working for 9 hours and forgetting to eat.

It's been useful and I remember to implement it, I don't have a ton of tools of strategies like that. What tools or strategies both work for you AND you seem able to actually implement them reasonably consistently?
