This Episode's Top Tips

Deadlines are great tools to help keep you motivated and keep you on track - espesially in regards to righting. These deadlines are incredibly helpful for those things that don't have a well defined done state (like writing).
Accountability can be incredibly helpful for keeping us on task and can come from many sources. In Terry's case, working with an editor helped keep him on track when he needed to follow through with those intentions of writing.
The importance of grace and understanding is an critical building block in our ADHD journey - whether it is with ourselves or others we need to allow for room to make mistakes and grow with our ADHD.
