About this listen
Why does the day disappear, even when you start with a clear plan?
For busy professionals with ADHD, time blindness isn't a character flaw. Research points to neurobiological differences in executive function and time perception, dopamine dysregulation affecting motivation and internal timing.
The result? Reactive weeks. Strategic thinking is squeezed out by "urgent." Constant context switching. Strained relationships.
In this episode, Dave reframes time blocking as visual decision-making and not rigid scheduling.
- Why high achievers with ADHD struggle with estimating time
- The leadership cost of operating without visual structure
- Using themed blocks (Deep Work, Meetings, Admin, Strategic Thinking, Recovery)
- Planning by energy, not just the clock
- Matching high-focus windows to complex work
- Building buffers and overflow blocks (plan for reality, not perfection)
- Transition rituals to reduce friction (5-minute resets, defining the next tiny step, clearing tabs)
- The "Land and Launch" method for smoother task switching
