“Despite what the words "attention deficit" imply, ADHD is not a deficit of attention, but rather a challenge of regulating it at will or on demand.”
Jenara Nerenberg, Divergent Mind: Thriving in a World That Wasn't Designed for You

James Clear
“When preparation becomes a form of procrastination, you need to change something. You don’t want to merely be planning. You want to be practicing.”
James Clear, Atomic Habits: An Easy & Proven Way to Build Good Habits & Break Bad Ones

Oliver Burkeman
“ask how big the loss would be if you failed. So long as it would be tolerable, that’s all you need to know. Take that next step, and see what happens.”
Oliver Burkeman, The Antidote: Happiness for People Who Can't Stand Positive Thinking

Arin Murphy-Hiscock
“Don’t procrastinate. Don’t let all the work fall on the shoulders of “Future You.” That’s an abuse of your own energy and disrespect of your future self.”
Arin Murphy-Hiscock, The Witch's Book of Self-Care: Magical Ways to Pamper, Soothe, and Care for Your Body and Spirit

Mary Oliver
“What shall I do? When I pick up the broom he leaves the room. When I fuss with kindling he runs for the yard. Then he’s back, and we hug for a long time. In his low-to-the-ground chest I can hear his heart slowing down. Then I rub his shoulders and kiss his feet and fondle his long hound ears. Benny, I say, don’t worry. I also know the way the old life haunts the new.”
Mary Oliver, Dog Songs
