Where do I start?
Pick how you feel.
Page 3
I feel overwhelmed
Too many thoughts. I can't breathe.
Start with Brain Dump — empty your head first. No filter, no judgment.
Page 6
I can't start anything
Frozen, paralyzed, stuck in place.
Jump to 15 Min Action — set a timer, choose the smallest task. You only need to begin.
Bonus
I have no energy
Exhausted, depleted.
Use the Ultra Simple page — one idea, one task, ten minutes. That's enough for today.
Bonus
I'm in crisis mode
Can't function at all.
Go to Emergency Mode — drink water, breathe. You don't need a plan.
When your brain feels too loud, this helps you:
✓ Clear the noise   ✓ Start small   ✓ Move forward gently
There's no wrong place to start. The only wrong move is not opening this journal.
You already did the hardest part — you showed up.

Brain Dump

"Everything in my head right now… Tasks, worries, random thoughts, feelings — all of it belongs here."

START ANYWHERE · ONE WORD IS ENOUGH
What's feeling heavy right now
One thing I can let go of today
You cleared some space. That already helps.
Page 4 · Daily Reset
Overwhelm → Clarity
Turn the chaos into something your brain can handle.

When everything feels messy, your brain freezes. When things are sorted, you can move.

What's overwhelming me right now (write everything, no filter)
Sort your thoughts. Don't overthink it.
Urgent
Important
Can Wait
What I'm choosing to focus on today only
"Not today" doesn't mean "never."
Moving something to CAN WAIT is a win.
Page 5 · Focus Mode
One Task.
Just One.
Your brain doesn't need more. It needs less.
Today, I'm focusing on this one thing
Write it down — make it real. Keep it simple.
Why this actually matters to me
The smallest step I can take
If I get stuck then I will…

(ex: "I check my phone" → "I turn it off for 10 min")

If this happens…
Then I will…
Done? Check it off!
I started — that's already a win
I worked on it for at least 15 minutes
Task complete — I'm proud of myself

15 Min Action
You don't need to finish. You just need to begin.
05:00
Start your timer. You can do this.
My first small action (right now)
Make it tiny — "open the doc" not "work on the project."
My focus space
My focus mood / music

After 15 min — what happened?

I did it (even if hard)
I got into flow
I kept going
Starting is the hardest part. And you just did it.
Small actions change everything.

Dopamine Boost
Your brain needs wins. Let's give it some — even the tiny ones.
The ADHD brain often forgets what it accomplished.
This page is your proof that you showed up today.
What I did today (even small things)
My small win today
What I learned today
One thing I'm proud of (big or small)
You showed up today. That's already a win.
Page 8 · Evening
No-Guilt
Reflection
Look back with kindness. You did your best today.

No blame. No shame.
Just a gentle way to understand your day.

What I managed today (even a little)
What felt hard (and that's okay)
One thing I'd try differently tomorrow
Today, I let go of…
Tomorrow's intention (keep it small)
How I feel tonight
Calm Frustrated Relieved Productive Tired Proud Anxious Grateful Hopeful
You're learning. That's what matters.

Your Affirmations
Read out loud if you can.

On days when everything feels like too much, this is enough.

I am not lazy.
I am overwhelmed.
There is a difference.
My brain works differently.
That is a superpower in disguise.
Starting small is still starting.
I am enough.
Every day I show up
is a day I choose myself.
"Progress, not perfection. One moment at a time."
My personal affirmation (write your own)
Small steps still count.
For your low-energy days
Ultra Simple
(low energy mode)
On days when everything feels like too much, this is enough.
1
1 Thought
What's on my mind right now (just one thing)
The one thing taking up space in my head...
2
1 Task
The one tiny thing I will do today
Make it embarrassingly small. "Open the doc." That counts.
3
10 Minutes
Set a timer for 10 minutes and begin:
10:00
Just 10 minutes. You can stop after. That's enough.
"Doing a little is infinitely better than doing nothing."
You showed up. That already counts.

Completely stuck right now?
Emergency
Mode
You don't need a plan. You need a breath.
1
Drink Water
Get up. Get a glass of water. Right now.
Your brain cannot function when dehydrated. This is step one, always.
2
Sit Down
Find a seat. Put your feet flat on the floor.
Take 3 slow breaths. In through your nose. Out through your mouth.
3
Name One Tiny Action
Not a plan. Not a list. ONE action.
Example: "Open the email", "Reply to one message".
4
Set a 5-Minute Timer
Five minutes only. Not 15. Not 25. Five.
When the timer rings, you are allowed to stop.
05:00
5
After the Timer
You did something. That's a win. Write it in Dopamine Boost. You showed up in crisis. That's strength.
I did my 5 minutes. I showed up.
"Being stuck is not failure. Staying stuck is a choice."
