I’m reading Organizing Solutions for People with ADHD by Susan Pinksky and it is full of helpful advice and useful tips. But I don’t like to hear the truth sometimes.

The actual quote from the book is “If you are purchasing items for a project, pause to put the date you will DO the project on your calendar (preferably within the week). If the project doesn’t get done, reschedule it so those supplies stay on your radar… We should only buy items for which we have an imminent plan or need.”

        I, too, immediately looked at my piles (plural) of unfinished (some, barely started) projects…

        A jack of all trades, is a master of none (but is much better than a master of one). At least we’re learning a lot as we go through life. That has to amount to something, right? … right??

      My sister recommended it after I got her to read How To Keep House While Drowning, which I saw recommended on this sub a few weeks ago. Both are great!
