Hyperfocus, Pefectionism and Task Switching struggles?

People freak out when they come to my desk due to the number of things I have open and working in at once.

YES, endlessly!

I have countless projects that I start and stop constantly but never finish. 5 minutes on this one, 15 minutes over here, then walk into another room to get something for a protect and get totally distracted by something totally unrelated. That's how the cycle starts and continues daily. I can't even finish coloring one single page. Part way through I have to switch to a different page or book or medium. And I can't stop buying my supplies for new projects to never finish. Jewelery, paints, watercolor markers, alcohol markers, alcohol ink, paper making, colorbooks, cloud lamps, resin molds, thinking putty, flame work beads, shelves for my cat to climb the walls with... and the list keeps growing. Lol. I have everything that I need to start making stained glass pieces that i bought at the beginning of covid because I couldn't work on blown glass in the hot shop anymore during the shutdown. And it sits neatly packaged in my closet to this day. I think I cut one tiny practice piece of glass the day I get everything and that was it. If I could just get organized and start one thing at a time after finishing the the project before it. GOALS

😭 this will be what ends me. Buuuut I have been trying something out that has kind of started working. I basically gave chatgpt a bunch of context about my situation (adhd and starting a business). Then asked it to create a comprehensive snd detailed task breakdown to help me achieve my goal. It was surprisingly pretty good. (Put aside the hours my brain decided to spend fiddling with it) Despite it needing me to do a bit of refinement to the tasks, it took a lot of the mental load and prevented me from going down the endless rabbit holes of trying to organize it myself. Then I just exported the tasks and imported into Trello. A few days on and it’s been pretty productive.
