I want to hear more stories of folks with #adhd who have really successfully implemented this.
Self trust, positive self talk. Who has gone from not having this to having this and what did you do to make the change.

This is way too real.
Somehow I was able to compartmentalize and keep long term insanely hard promises to myself — but still have massive guilt and shame around broken micro commitments like showing up to meetings on time

Had a roommate who was pissed at me for not remembering to put away his sun lamp try to tie those together
if you can’t remember to do this tiny thing, how can anyone trust you for larger projects like Roam
this was maybe a year before launch - we were close to out of cash...

To which my response was, well you fuck RIGHT OFF with that garbage
Keeping those separate—keeping confident in my word to myself on crazy hard tasks - despite fact that I would forget small commitments to others over and over... this has been extremely extremely hard

I’ve had advice to be “Impeccable” on the small stuff from so many incredible incredible mentors - and read so many great books that advocated same, but every time I’ve tried this so far have found failures all the more soul crushing.
The best thing I’ve found with my team so far was to setup an SLA - where I’ll pay into a “late jar” for every minute I’m late. Setting expectation that lateness will happen and creating env where that doesn’t break trust. Just being honest w what I expect of myself
I very much want to get to place where every statement and every commitment is absolutely rock solid, but if you are similar place.. please do not lose faith in yourself every time you get distracted and let something slip.
