How To Deal With Deadlines With Your ADHD Brain

Description:
Presented by Understood.org
You’re guessing how long things take.
That guess feels reasonable.
It’s just wrong, over and over again.
In the last episode, we broke down why ADHD time blindness happens. This one is about what to do about it.
Because the real problem isn’t planning. It’s relying on estimation at all.
In this episode, Skye and Robert walk through how to replace your internal clock with systems that actually hold up in real work:
• why you can’t “get better” at estimating time
• how to use past projects instead of guessing
• how teams quietly adjust for you (and why that creates tension)
• why buffers and “extra time” don’t work
• how to build timelines that don’t collapse halfway through
If you’re tired of missing deadlines you genuinely thought were realistic, this will show you what’s actually going wrong, and what works instead.
