Nice suggestions, thanks!
Challenges usually get the opposite reaction than demands for me, I can’t even count all the stuff I’ve done because of it. Maybe self (not-)imposed challenges would work? I’ll need to give it a try. Though challenges also have their problems, like picking the most stupid or pointless ideas because I was advised not to do it. I think there’s a correlation between how stupid and pointless an idea is and how quickly my brain latches onto in 😅
No it’s really that the result feels like a decision imposed on me and my brain can’t deal with that… It’s the same if I start to do something I want, then someone calls to tell me to do it and now I can’t do it anymore. Not sure if it’s PDA or something else, but it’s really annoying, especially in combination with AuDHD.
1 is my goal, though I think I might have reached 2 once. Because shitty ADSL 😭
My very grateful thanks to people who can afford to do more.
Tried it, not a great success… The only result is making me not want whatever was chosen anymore.
My brain has this awful tendency of going “I could have done it a minute ago but now that someone else told me to I can’t anymore”
If you look at old silent movies, they were played at different speeds in different cinemas and projections. There wasn’t a standard way to play a movie, no “you NEED to play the movie at this specific speed or it will be ruined”. I’m not saying the same should apply to modern movies, but I find it interesting.
Yep very weird, should have been 255.
Or when it’s bothering you that it’s 256 and not 255… aren’t we counting 0 anymore? :/
That’s because doorways are portals to other universes and it always scambles your brain a bit when you cross. Just ask Ingress.
Nope, can’t relate, my time management skills are too bad to wake up in the morning 😅
I had no idea people past my grandmother’s generation still felt compelled to make their bed… I thought we had collectively grown past the compulsion to do pointless tasks like this, along with other wastes of time like manually wiping the dishes or ironing everything including the dish cloth. Maybe that’s just me, though.
(I’m not talking about doing it if you want to because you like it, only about the expectation that you should be doing it no matter what.)
