All in ADHD Entrepreneur
Out of sight, out of mind is a common ADHD trait that is a big challenge for me (you can tell by looking at my coffee table). That’s why visual reminders can be incredibly effective in keeping your finances on track. Whether it’s a sticky note on your computer or a chart on your wall, these reminders can help you stay focused on your financial goals.
A clear plan can also lead to increased revenue in your business because we can often hold ourselves back income-wise when we don’t have confidence in how we are managing our money!
Our brains are wired to chase new ideas and excitement, making it tough to stay on top of routine tasks like budgeting and saving. But don't worry—I've got you covered with some practical financial management hacks that will make the process a lot less overwhelming and maybe even (dare I say) a bit enjoyable.
Let’s start by addressing the elephant in the room: can we create routines as ADHD entrepreneurs? Or are we setting ourselves up for failure by setting the expectation that we need to have a rigid routine? I think the answer is somewhere in the middle. I can’t think of a catchy name for it right now, so for now, let’s call it routine-ish! 😆 Having a rough outline of a routine but allowing ourselves flexibility is where I find the sweet spot. So how can you find yours?

Either we miss a deadline or due date, or we stress ourselves out to bend over backwards to still get the thing done in time despite all the procrastination. So, if you are procrastinating because the task isn’t urgent enough yet, you really hate it, or you’re current hyper-focus is pulling you away, I’ve got a list of things you can try to help you move out of procrastination mode!
