Action Cards
One page, one mechanism, one thing to do.
Print-and-stick guides for the ADHD brain. Each card explains a single mechanism in plain language, then hands over a clear action card for the moment it actually matters. Read on screen, or download the PDF and put it where the thing happens.
Executive Function · Task Initiation
Cold Start
Knows what to do, agrees it isn't hard, still can't start. Why the threshold — the moment before a task begins — is the single most expensive part of the whole task for an ADHD brain, and a five-step routine to get past it.
Executive Function · Emotional Control
Emotion Management
The first read of a situation grabs the wheel before a second one can form. Why ADHD makes emotional regulation a reappraisal problem — getting a second read — rather than an impulse-control problem, and what to do when a feeling takes over.
Executive Function · Time
Time Blindness
“Five more minutes” becomes an hour; a deadline that felt far away is suddenly tonight. Why an ADHD brain can't read its own clock — it runs on now and not-now — and how to move time out of your head and into the room.
