Managing ADHD can be hard, and getting important tasks done on time might feel like a never ending, uphill battle. Part of managing ADHD is accepting our limitations and being a bit kinder to ourselves; nonetheless, being kinder to ourselves won't necessarily get the laundry done, pick up the kids from school, or finish that project we're procrastinating on. Incorporating tools like a daily productivity planner can be helpful in managing bigger and/or important tasks.
