This is hardly news, but it might surprise you to learn the same is true for adults with attention deficit.The fact is, the most organized, on-time people you know all have one thing in common: They do the same tasks in the same order, each and every day.
We wouldn’t blame you for mistaking unmovable daily routines for boring tedium — especially if you thrive on the new and the novel.But the results speak for themselves: Set up reliable routines for the more mundane aspects of your life — getting ready for work, making dinner, getting to bed on time — and you’ll free up important time to enjoy the rest of your life, without feeling guilty about putting off the laundry or oversleeping again.
