Just finished the first section of my ADHD Snapshot and realised something wild: I dismissed ADHD for years because my cousin "needed medication" and I didn't. Turns out my brain isn't built for solo execution, it's built for collaborative ignition. That's why I light up around people and shut down alone. Never had words for it before now.

📅 Daily Check-in - April 28, 2026 💭 Reflection: "We started the morning with cohort body doubling with Suliet and Diana and then we were joined by Darci and Fiona who haven't done a lot of body doubling at all so they just wanted to come and join us and say hello and see I guess what the platform felt like as well so that's really cool. I have a body doubling session set with Fiona tomorrow evening New Zealand time so that's really awesome. I got to share with Darci some tips and tricks on how to set up an AI clone also known as an AI thought partner or an AI twin and just some ideas on that and I showed her a couple of things that I had been doing in that space to set myself up a clone or a twinny and do some automated kind of AI assistant work for me so that gave me great joy being able to help with that because I had just been doing over the weekend some AI advantage summit learnings. Then I jumped in to do some work work and it's quite exciting because I'm helping build out the new platform and the new operational guidance for our company which is a software as a solution company for the HR human resources and payroll platform so I like doing the design work and pulling frameworks together so that made me feel useful which was cool. Didn't get out for an intentional piece of exercise today however I think going up and down a ladder and up and down a ladder and playing Edward Scissorhands to reshape my topiary big trees, so I think that was sufficient exercise today. Jumped back into office mode, and sent some ideas to Jim for the ADHD harmony, on learning about Whole Brain Dominance - hopefully it will be well received (to be fair, I was a bit nervous doing it) and and what else well nothing else really I've just done my ADHD snapshot so I need to have a wee read of that and understand some of that, and what it's sort of saying to me. Tomorrow is a new day - I did waste time last night. It's a very shameful way to say it, isn't it? I wasted time. Oh, that sounds like my mother in the background going, don't you have jobs to do? Yes, I chilled and I watched some television drama, probably for too much time, but that's okay. I just wanted to rest and relax and not check my big to-do list, so be gone, shame. I chilled and did not a great deal that was on my long to-do list, but I did do some gardening yesterday, so that's great, that's great. Anyway, I'll catch you folks tomorrow and I will watch the replays of day one of the Five Day Challenge tomorrow morning, early. Ciao for now."
