It makes sense that when I have to rely on my forebrain (discipline) for progress, I poop out quickly.

Due to my #ADHD, there's a little hamster on a wheel in there instead of an engine.

When I can rely on the thoughts and imagination in the whale that is my midbrain and hindbrain instead, it's effortless, but I never know where it's going to swim next.

The hamster needs a lot of rest. I have to rely on external cues and structures a lot of the time, to nudge the whale in the right direction.

Most of my hamster's energy is spent on creating and maintaining structures to remind the whale of where it needs to swim.
