  • Ah… So if I’m reading you right, you’re saying:

    Yes, no system currently accounts for what we NEED it to do. So the most DIRECT solution would be to create a new movement, a new SYSTEM of people, control, and influence that transcends existing abstractions like nationalities, race, culture, and have this ontologically encompassing system implement that change from its larger frame of reference.

    I like that. I hadn’t considered that approach and it’s probably right on the money. I think the first step is recognition of the issue and the need for such a movement. As such… Have you thought about names?

    Something you would call such an endeavor, or movement, or coalition. Something that would be instantly recognizable as to what the goal or at least spirit or attitude behind it would be? Probably seems like a silly thing to fixate on this early, but sometimes the right name is a powerful tool.

    For me personally, the trick was realizing that:

    1. I already know it needs to be done
    2. I know I’ll feel good for getting it done
    3. I’m not lazy

    And then realizing that time blindness has a huge deterministic impact on the causality chain of your life.

    Imagine you are doctor Manhattan. Doctor Manhattan has clear view of his entire personal timeline. He knows exactly when he is meant to do what he needs to do.

    ADHD makes you completely and utterly time blind at worst, or a bit tardy at average, or on time if you’ve developed great coping skills.

    So the trick I realized is prioritization. You need to convince yourself that the present moment is the point on the timeline you were meant to complete this task.

    Anyway I hope that makes sense to everyone. It worked a treat for me.

    Edit:

    Relevant fiction that helps cement these lessons. Watchmen (2009), Steins;gate (anime)
