I take things in steps. One short doable goal. achieve that then set the next one.
find something that actually interests you so you dont get sidetracked. add isnt even a disease its just an excuse to give kids a drug to make them pay attention(answering, riddlein) smoke some weed to focus and stay out of (well stay out of SOME)trouble
Constantly remind yourself of what is important at that moment and see it through.
Memorize the term "Complete the cycle".
That means, telling yourself to finish what you start.
A cycle can be something like you take out the peanut butter, make your sandwich and in order to complete the cycle you need to put the peanut butter away and then eat the sandwich.
We can all be helped by telling ourselves to Complete the Cycle.
