Wonderful. It’s 10:43AM right now. I’ll start at 5:37PM. Thanks for the tip!
Fuck! It’s 5:49PM now. Guess I’ll wait until tomorrow to try again.
Implementation intention can also be a good thing, though.
Starting at 6:00 is better than trying to force it “right now”, failing, and doing nothing. Or exerting more willpower and pain than necessary.
Haha, No, I cannot
Ah damn it’s 15:03 I missed it, geuss I’ll have to play games some more and try again at 16:00
My brain also tries to trick me with that kind of thoughts, but I’m not getting fooled.
im 37. i was diagnosed half a year ago with adhd. now i take medication and started to lurk in this community. i wanted to write “blasphemy” but i see i found a new home 😂 i feel seen
I don’t know which arrow to click for this.
what’s next? start working out in april?
Nah, minutes have to be either a multiple of 5 or a power of two, ideally also a perfect square. Hours have to be an even number less than 10 but greater than 3. And not on a weekend, regional holiday, or day immediately preceding or succeeding either.
And the form must be filed in triplicate.
Aaah I wish it was studying!! I’m procrastinating on sending in the documents to finally drop out of University, gotta do it until the end of the month ugh (I’ve stayed signed up for the past 4 years just for the bus ticket and the good cafeteria food)
just because i need to hear this doesn’t mean i want to hear this :(
i’ll wait til 5:73
But if I start doing it at 5:37, I’ll always have to do it at that exact time.
Correction: if I start at 5:37 I have to stop precisely at 6:37 to have studied for an hour. Much easier to start and stop at 6 and 7. Mhm.
Pro tip. Study in 50 or 55 minute increments. Start at 5:05/5:00 and end at 5:55. Makes the time you dedicate feel significantly shorter (I mean it is by 5/10 minutes but you get my point) as it’s in the same hour. It also fits the college class schedule style. Those 60 minute class timeslots always feel so much better than the 90 minute ones do.
I don’t actually ever stop at the correct time. But actually starting it is the hardest part. Treating it like a quick class period helps me.
Why 37… probably because it’s random
Love this video
You can even schedule things at odd times. Nothing like saying you only have 12:27, 1:48, and 2:31 open in your schedule.
