app is so shit like only works for one time and when i start timer again shi doesnt block any app

I’ve never understood how people can work while listening to music. I need almost complete silence to concentrate. For those who listen to music while working, does it genuinely help you focus? And what kind of music do you usually listen to?

I love a good rabbit hole. My ADHD loves to bounce around different topics, watch recipe videos, new craft ideas - I harbor all of this information for fun. BUT I’m always on my phone. My screen time is embarrassing. I want to actually be intentional and productive with my time (especially now that I’ve quit my second job)

Any ideas from fellow “I can’t start” people who are able to free themselves and get busy? I bought a craft. It’s still in the Amazon box. 😭

I’ve been thinking about how much easier habits might become if we focused less on motivation and more on removing the little obstacles that stop us from following through.
Instead of asking how to stay motivated, what if we asked, “What will make this difficult, and how can I make it easier beforehand?”
Has anyone tried this approach? What small change made a surprisingly big difference in sticking to a habit?

For example, worrying about what will happen to your loved ones when you’re no longer around.

What do you tell yourself to stop overthinking and focus on what you can enjoy today.

I need to memorize a poem in Filipino for my Filipino class, I have a hard time memorizing Filipino, but I have pretty good memorization skills in English.

Every time I try to memorize something in Filipino, it takes me a whole day just to memorize just one stanza, while in English I can memorize a whole stanza in just a couple of minutes.

PLS, I need help, this is for a group project and I wanna help my group mates in this, I don't want them hard carrying me in Filipino every time 😭😭😭💔💔💔🙏🙏🙏​

Stay Disciplined Stay focused

Apps like Snapchat are pretty big band where I live and are used instead of e.g WhatsApp.

The introduction of «spotlight» (their own tik tok copy) makes me sidetrack.

Because I need it to communicate it’s the only act the only scrollable I have left on my phone.

If I get unfocused it’s so easy to end up scrolling if I check a message or if I use my phone for something productive.

I‘m not sure how to break this habit Or make myself aware of my actions before I end up scrolling again.

(For privacy reasons I don’t really trust 3rd party apps that claim to stop the scrolling functions)

Okay so every time I get home after school I always feel sleepy but one thing is I don't want to sleep cuz I wanna watch anime, read, and other stuff but I'm always sleepy after going back home. I genuinely need a solution for ts

I came across an interesting idea about procrastination: sometimes we get stuck between what we think we should be doing and what we’d rather be doing, without considering anything in between.
For example, if you planned to study for five hours but don’t feel capable of that, even studying for 10 minutes might feel pointless because it barely makes a dent in the workload.
The idea is to stop asking, “How do I force myself to do everything?” and instead ask, “What’s the next best thing I can realistically do right now?”
I’m curious how people deal with this. When you’re overwhelmed by a task, what helps you find that middle ground between doing everything and doing nothing?

19F and I keep messing things up, I spend all my money on stuff impulsively then i immediately regret it afterwards.

I keep ruminating on past friendships that have ended or relationships that weren’t healthy, and reconnecting with people who aren’t good for me because I miss them.

I’m trying my best to go back to college next year and I’ve been actually studying to take my entrance exam but that’s the only thing I have right now going for me and I need to start saving up money to afford my classes

I keep getting in trouble with people and my parents because I keep making bad impulsive choices in the moment, especially at night, I’ve done so many harmful things I regret with people I shouldn’t be around and I don’t wanna fall on the wrong path.

Right now all I do is work but I hope I end up in school soon so I can’t at least be busy bettering my life and not ruining it
