It’s a system that has worked wonders for me in terms of productivity and getting things done effectively while living with an attentional difficulty. The next time you find yourself having difficulty with focus and productivity, consider using the Time Cube method.
Working productively with an attentional difficulty requires a much more creative and clever approach, but it can absolutely be done. Oftentimes living with ADHD means that the good old trusted organizational strategies that work well for the majority just don’t seem to work quite as well for the ADHD brain. This allows us to recognize patterns where others may only see chaos-a huge benefit for creativity and problem-solving! Since the ADHD brain lets in a lot of what the non-ADHD brain might consider irrelevant noise, sometimes, ADHDers are able to notice things that others naturally filter out. Living with ADHD allows us to be intuitive and curious. Living with ADHD allows us to experience the excitement of hyper-focus, a common symptom of ADHD in which one can be so intently focused on a task that we forget the world around us. Living with ADHD allows us to live life with a sense of spontaneity that can bring upon so many wonderful life experiences. Although living with an attentional difficulty does come with its challenges, there are a whole host of benefits that aren’t commonly discussed. Throughout my life, it's been pretty evident to me that there’s a major stigma associated with ADHD along with a whole host of misconceptions among them that folks like us are altogether incapable of focus, that our lack of attention is just a form of laziness, and that it’s a diagnosis that only applies to children. Often when I share with others that I live with ADHD, I’m met with the pretty common response of “but you don’t act like you have ADHD.”
