How do you feel about TIME?
If you’re neurodivergent, time can be a funny one. Five minutes can feel like five seconds or five hours, and an hour of hyperfocus can sometimes vanish in the blink of an eye! In this mini episode I talk about why estimating time can be so hard when you run your own business as an ADHDer, and the simple things I do so I’m reliably just about on time.
In this episode:
Why ADHDers can have a “spongy” relationship with time
Why “I don’t have time” is often “I don’t make time”
Why “how long is a piece of string?” is a pricing problem, not only a time problem
A simple first step: gather the data, because your brain is not a reliable source
A bigger next step: buffer, buffer, buffer. Assume it’ll take twice as long, then add 50%
