Field notes worth reopening.
Useful ideas, practical tools, and honest experiments from inside an ADHD brain. No daily pressure. No productivity cosplay.
Put this in my inbox.
The Dispatch is biweekly-ish because humans are involved.
Each issue carries one useful idea you can try without rebuilding your life, one honest field note about what worked and what broke, and one route back in: a book method, a free tool, or a resource matched to the mess.
Read one before you decide.
Every issue that has gone out, in full. If these aren’t useful to you, don’t sign up.
- Nine chapters, eleven daysA Hot pile item with no real consequence sat for two months. Building the reward into a task that gives nothing back: pair it, make progress visible, stop while it's good.
- The email I should've sent a month agoA month of silence explained: the newsletter moved to new software and never got turned on. A system that goes quiet needs a restart rule, and here is the restart.
- Just the spotlightWhen an overloaded brain demands the whole plan, light one small circle of floor instead: one task, one decision, one message or one reset. "Not today. Just the spotlight."
- I don't have enough data yetNo reply yet, and the brain has already decided it went badly. Before you react or send the follow-up, add one sentence: "I don't have enough data yet."
- Optimization TheaterForty-five minutes researching software for a ten-minute task. When working memory won't hold, stop trying to remember: write the first micro-step on paper and put it on the keyboard.
