Measuring The Success Of Your Routines

It may surprise you of what I have to say! 

For many of us, the measurement of our routines are based on one thing….Consistency! 

However, you ask any ADHD’er and they will tell you that’s the one thing they are not. 

The ADHD mind is consistent in being inconsistent.

So, why measure success around something you already know you’re not good at?

It really doesn’t make any sense. 

Doing a routine every day is nice and it will certainly help you make the routine a habit, however there are other ways to define your success.

  • When you followed the routine, did it accomplish what you wanted?

  • Did you feel more in control of your time?

  • Did you worry less about forgetting something? 

  • Were you in a better mood?

  • Did you feel more confident? 

  • Were you happier when you went to bed that night? 

You may not get a chance for whatever reason to practice your routine everyday and that’s ok. Remember, how you feel when you do it and try again tomorrow! 

Thank you for your time and attention.
