Summary

In this episode of the ADHD with Jenna Free podcast, I explore the complexities of prioritization, particularly for us with ADHD. I highlight the role of dysregulation in decision-making and the necessity of accepting the consequences of our choices. By understanding the interplay between prioritization and regulation, I encourage you to reflect on your decision-making processes and embrace a more regulated and grounded approach to prioritization.

Takeaways

  • Prioritization is an action, not just a thought process.
  • Dysregulation can make it difficult to prioritize effectively.
  • Accepting the consequences of choices is crucial for prioritization.
  • Everything we prioritize comes with a sacrifice.
  • It's important to recognize that there is no 'right' answer in prioritization.
  • Making decisions is more valuable than seeking the perfect choice.
  • Dysfunctional thinking can lead to paralysis in decision-making.
  • Regulation is key to overcoming prioritization challenges.
  • Understanding the cause and effect of choices can aid in prioritization.
  • Digging deeper into our beliefs can unlock better prioritization strategies.
