Time and the ADHD Entrepreneur

Are you busy from the time you wake up until you go to bed, if you go to bed?  Yet tasks never seem to get completed.  Don’t give up on a task until you have seen it to completion. Finished with the client proposal, then send it to the client, or print it out for your upcoming meeting.

Start tracking what you work on each day, and what excuses you use for not completing them.

“I kept getting interrupted”: Prevent interruptions, close your office door, turn off the ringer on you phone, make yourself unavailable.

“There is not enough time to finish”: Start reviewing your schedule, chances are you are overbooking yourself, if most tasks are not completed because you don’t have time, you need to cut back and be realistic.

“I’m just to tired to finish”: Again you are probably, overbooked, trying to do to much and not giving yourself enough time to rest and recharge.  You really do need to sleep!

“I just don’t feel like doing it”: Ah motivation.  When you are tracking what you work on, pay attention to what parts of the day you get the most done.  Plan on completing tasks during this part, or parts, of the day.

I wish you success!
