ADHD focus
Locking in, pomodoro and focus timers, deep work, calm focus and handling distraction at home and at work.
ADHD is less a lack of attention than trouble directing it. The same brain that drifts can lock on for hours.
“Locking in” is hyperfocus you invite on purpose. It needs a clear target and a clean runway.
The classic 25 on, 5 off is a starting point. Many ADHD brains prefer 10 or 45.
Seeing time shrink makes it real. A hidden countdown is easy to forget.
You may get 60 to 90 strong minutes. Protect them instead of wishing for four hours.
A session works better with a beginning and an end.
Many women with ADHD rely on last-minute adrenaline. It works and it costs a lot.
Your environment is winning. Change the environment.
Each switch costs time to get back. Batch the interruptions.
No technique makes up for a tired, hungry brain.
