- ADHD amplifies procrastination due to challenges in self-regulation, time management, and impulsivity.
- These challenges reside in the prefrontal cortex, which is already struggling.

- Identify your procrastination triggers, such as overwhelm, lack of knowledge, short-term focus, distractions, pressure, or negative self-talk.
- Address these root causes to develop effective strategies.

- Combat overwhelm by breaking large tasks into smaller, manageable steps (baby steps).
- Set a timer for a short period (e.g., 3-5 minutes) to start the task and celebrate small successes.
