ADHD

on weekly planning

stop-loss orders are a good comparison: they secure some upside, deal with volatility (real circumstances) and with mood swings (perceived circs)

the problem with planning creative work and content: planning is boring and must be done at times of low energy, bad mood or little time

fears 

- my current state will prevent me from having good ideas, so I will only schedule boring stuff
- new, better and more relevant ideas will present themselves on the day, at the right moment, so I have to leave empty slots for those

reality

- this is the calm before the storm: I might be a bit down right now, but it's much better than trying to chart a course in the middle of things
- new ideas are not guaranteed, they might be worse than the ones I can think of right now or come too late / at a bad moment 
- if i have better ideas at the right time, i can always swap them in
- mid ideas today can improve (and i'll have time to get what i need for executing on them)

monday mornings are usually low energy (unfortunately), but also come with added clarity

feels spot on

ty for taking the time to pull these thoughts together

did you do it during a high or a low energy phase, inquiring minds want to know 🤓
