I alternate between each one of the every day of the week and so the third never becomes apparent because other days compensate for it
How to get out of looping option 3 over and over?
Also see: do three people’s jobs alone but struggle to do just their own…
I got fired from a programming job because I wrote code for maybe 30 minutes a day, but spent all my other time going from desk to desk helping other devs find problems and get unstuck. It was maybe the most productive I’ve ever been on a job.
That day, I learned a valuable lesson: do an hour of work a day (or week), then sit at your desk pretending to work while parceling out the stuff you did. Never help anyone. My career has been much more successful since.
This is why work from home is such a blessing. In an office I could never be able to fuck around as much as I do, but I was definitely less productive overall because I wouldn’t do the hyperfocus periods because I was recently l resentful about being at the office.
Pretending to do work takes time and energy away from actually doing work.
Not to mention that there’s a 99% chance someone will find you when you start doing 40 hours of work in 8 hours, interrupt you with random shit from their stream of consciousness, and send you straight to goofy dragon #3
I envy the turtles but I was born a hare.
I feel very fortunate slow that and steady doesn’t actually always win the race.
I did the middle one today. My head is smoking. Kinda stoked to do the same again tomorrow. But we all know this isn’t how it works.
im personally stuck in nothing done mode
So… on average more work don than I get in a week?
Absolutely not
No.
The vast majority of ADHD memes made by self-diagnosed people who have no idea how it actually works.
They’re the same as the type of people who claim they have OCD because they like to clean up right after eating. While in reality people with severe OCD can end up standing outside their front door in the rain and get soaking wet for 20min, because they have to unlock the door in pattern they can’t get right.
The vast majority of self-diagnosed people are women and POC because they have historically been underserved and dismissed due to standards of ADHD care being exclusively modeled on boys from decades ago and systemic inequality in modern medicine leading to poorer outcomes in non-cis white males.
The ‘everyone has ADHD these days’ sentiment comes from the gatekeeping of ADHD behaviors to male stereotypes in media. Because girls are socialized differently and given less leniency for presenting the same behaviors, they are forced to mask better by internalizing their symptoms into depression and other mental health issues later on in life.
This kind of is no more than social media backlash against women coming out speaking about their experiences with systemic inequality in medicine, only to be told that this is all a social media fad in their heads. Speaking as someone who had to needlessly suffer for 3 decades before finding a (female) doctor who gave a damn about it. When I finally got medicated, I just broke down and cried. Out of relief from finding out what living with executive function and peace on my own was like, and out of bitterness that this was withheld from me and many more women out there.
So don’t ever tell self-diagnosed people they don’t know how their own body works. I’m sick and tired of hearing this argument from people who haven’t been medically gaslit to no end by doctors who don’t treat their patients like reliable witnesses to their body. This goes so much further than ADHD. I have had other severe misdiagnoses that put my life at risk because of doctors’ egos who would rather get you killed than admit they’re wrong for dismissing your symptoms.
Personally I don’t get the 4 hours one every day, nor the 40 hours one every week. So not necessarily.
Of course there’s the ultra rare week where you hit the 40 hour mode 2 or 3 times
Same… For me, number 3 is the default, until it gets to the point where my job is on the line. Then I do 40 hours in a day to catch up.
On average nothing is done compared to normal people 👍
