Are here other people with messy houses with lots of stuff and too overwhelmed to start or, if be able to start, ending up worse at night? Any tips how to deal with it?

@Sara Ellisson I found these which I am going to try after I've finished taking the ones I'm currently taking as they sound good. Maybe they could be helpful for you if they are available where you are and you would like to try them?

Transformation doesn’t fail because of strategy. It fails because behaviour doesn’t change. With Chinedu's question about moving from tradtiional work to entrepreunerial work - Jim said something that really landed: We need to use our discretionary time better and differently —and ask ourselves: What do I need to do less of… to make room for better things in my life? That’s behavioural change in one sentence. Not “be a new person.”Not “try harder.”But adjust the dial. This dsicussion reminded me of a simple tool, I used to use in Operations Management, so I made some changes to it, (with my ADHD lensey) and thought I would share it here with you. For our ADHD Brains especially, “be more disciplined” rarely works. But asking: - What needs more? - What needs to be better? - What needs to be different? - What needs less? That’s practical.That’s actionable.That creates space. Because you can’t add better things into a life that’s already full of “less helpful” ones. What do you need to do less of this week…to make room for something better? 👇If this wee template helps one peson, than that would be great. :) 🦓

I was shocked to be chosen on Q&A today, and I asked specifically why Keto seemed to give me more clarity, energy, and less brain fog. I've done Keto back in 2023 successfully and kept off the weight, but now I go on and off again...but I find what a difference it makes in my clarity, mood, and energy. Since then, I've found out I have ADHD, and I was only on Keto at the beginning of this year. Jim gave great advice (as usual), but didn't directly answer my question as to the science behind Keto, because he admitted - he didn't know. But I looked it up, and here it is if you want to know: When you do a Keto diet, you are putting your body into a state of ketosis, which means your body will start burning fat rather than sugar. You lower the sugars in your body to a point that they have no other choice, and that's when ketones are released. When that happens - being in the states of ketosis - it give the ADHD brain stealer a fuller and more balanced brain chemistry. The ADHD brain tends to struggle with dopamine regulation, energy consistency, and inflammation; Ketosis helps with all three of these, and here's why: You get more stable brain fuel, which typically runs on glucose, but that spikes and crashes you. ADHD brains are already sensitive to fluctuations, so they can cause brain fog, distractions, and irritability. BUT...when in ketosis, the brain now runs on ketones, which provide steady energy, don't spike and crash you, and cross the blood-brain barrier easily so it makes for clearer thinking, longer focus, and fewer mental dropouts. This is why the ketogenic diets were originally used for neurological conditions like epilepsy in children - look it up. It was developed by a doctor over 100 years ago! Since ADHD also struggles with low or poorly regulated dopamine levels, ketosis helps dopamine signalling by improving the mitochondrial function (brain energy production), reducing dopamine receptor resistance, and stabilizing blood sugar, which affects dopamine release. Therefore, it gives fewer cravings, less impulsive eating, and better task persistence.

I’m curious how others store their clothing for easy retrieval. One thing I learned is the less clothing I have, the better. I was living on the road for a few years with few belongings and I found the ADHD to be much more manageable. Now I”m living in a house again with all of my belongings and finding it a bit overwhelming even though I really don’t own a lot.
