Task Breakdown
One task that feels too big? Chop it into steps so small they're almost silly. ADHD brains don't stall on hard, they stall on vague. Give your brain an obvious first move.
Type your own, or tap a common one below and we'll load the tiny steps for you. You can edit or delete any of them.
Why this works for ADHD brains
Task initiation is a real executive function, and it runs weaker in ADHD. A vague task gives your brain no obvious entry point, so it freezes and calls it “lazy.” It isn't. One clear, physical first action lowers the activation energy enough to actually begin, and starting is almost always the hardest part. More on decision fatigue and ADHD.
Frequently asked questions
Why is starting tasks so hard with ADHD?
Task initiation is an executive function that runs weaker in ADHD brains. A big, vaguely-defined task gives the brain no obvious first move, so it stalls. Breaking it into one tiny, physical first step removes that barrier.
What is Focus Mode?
Focus Mode dims every step except the single next one. Seeing only one action at a time prevents the overwhelm of staring at a whole list.
