The short answer is that I try to maximize the strengths and minimize the struggles of ADHD.
Some practical examples:
- I have a job without any long-term projects (only long-term goals), so I never get bored from my tasks.
- I keep my evening schedules clear so I have room to be spontaneous in my hobbies after work. This is prabably made easier by being an introvert as I don't have the need to socialize often.
- I nurture an attitude toward my hobbies which is that the process in itself is always the goal. That it is okay to not finish a project as long as I keep learning new things.
- I depricate any stressfull commitment which is neither important or meaningfull long-term.
Also medication helps to overcome the menial hurdels.
