Audit for friction, not failure
Here’s a truth I’ve learned (and re-learned) a hundred times:Most people don’t need more systems. They just need their existing ones to be easier to use.
ADHD brains crave friction-free systems, because the tiniest barrier (“where does this go again?” or “I’ll organize that later”) can make the whole thing collapse.
So this week’s tip:
👉 Audit for friction, not failure.
Instead of scrapping a “broken” system, look for what’s tripping you up.
Is there a step that takes too long?
A tool that feels clunky?
A habit you’re forcing when your brain clearly resists it?
Remove or adjust that single point of friction.Sometimes a system starts working again simply because you stopped over-engineering it.
Your system should make your life lighter, not heavier.
