My #ADHD brain doesn't feel time, so I capture it with a chess clock.

Player 1 on the left is "off the clock" & Player 2 on the right is "on the clock" - clearly my cat stickers are resting/playing vs business mode 🥹

Caveat: this only helps if I actually remember to press the buttons 😭 #ADHData

There is no more productive time for me than after folks have gone to bed. I can work without interruption, no pings, no meetings to prep/debrief, nothing. But I do need some help getting there. My #ADHD brain often needs body-doubling in order to sort of co-regulate into focus-mode #ADHData #databs

I got some questions about how I use my chess timer, and a video is just easier, so here you go!

Also, it's been nice to see the overlap between my #ADHD crowd and my #databs crowd. I keep using the #ADHData hashtag to include both, and I hope others will use it, too!
