  • I was. As a boy, I had undiagnosed ADHD and had a terrible time managing my emotions. It wouldn’t take much for me to cry, like getting out in dodgeball. It was easy ammo for the bullies. My parents were very controlling which stunted my social growth and I had very few friends. I remember one of the boys being dared to put his arm around my shoulders at lunch. I thought he legitimately wanted to connect with me until he started counting out loud. All I could do was put my head down in shame…I don’t look back on my childhood very fondly. Things were rough.










  • When getting ready for the day, I put everything I’m going to use on the bathroom counter and put things away as I use each item, that way I don’t forget to do something.

    I check the mail and take out the trash / pull the bins up every day when I get home from work. I used to forget often, but making it a “do it every time” thing has made it a no-brainer.

    I keep a reusable water bottle on my night stand, in the kitchen, in my car, and on my desk at work. I can’t be bothered to carry a water bottle everywhere, so I have them everywhere. I do almost the same thing with phone chargers.
