27:11 Rethinking Rushing and Efficiency

Summary

In this episode, I discuss the concept of ADHDers obsession with efficiency. I explore how the obsession with efficiency can lead to feelings of guilt, shame, and frustration, particularly when in survival mode. We are talking about the importance of shifting focus from efficiency to sustainability, advocating for a more regulated approach to tasks that allows for gradual progress rather than perfectionism.

Takeaways

  • ADHDers often obsess over efficiency, which can be counterproductive.
  • Perfectionism about efficiency can hinder action.
  • Survival mode creates a cycle of start-stop behavior.
  • Focusing on sustainability is more beneficial than efficiency.
  • Life is long; we should aim for gradual progress.
  • Small actions matter but we often devalue them.
