Pick the one goal that makes the others easier. Let the rest wait somewhere safe, and turn the chosen one into steps of five minutes or less.
Why an ADHD brain collects goals
A new goal feels good. A fresh idea brings a lift of interest and energy that an old plan no longer gives you, so the list keeps growing while very little of it moves.
That isn't a character flaw. It's how a brain that runs on interest and novelty works. The fix isn't more willpower — it's a shorter list.
The "unlocks" test
Look at your list and ask the same question of every goal: if this one were done, which of the others would get easier?
The goal that unlocks the most is your first goal. Finishing a course might make a job search easier. Sorting out your sleep might make everything easier. Pick one. Not three.
The rest wait — safely
The other goals aren't deleted. Ideas you're curious about can wait in Box 6 — R&D; things you want to keep and come back to can wait in Box 7 — Keeper. Knowing they're saved makes it easier to stop turning them over in your head.
On the free plan you have two active projects. That limit is a feature, not a cage: it protects you from starting six things and finishing none.
When you want to switch
Some days the new goal will look much more exciting than the one you picked. That's the novelty pull, and it will come back.
When it does, write the new idea down where it's safe, then go back to one small step on the goal you chose. Switching is allowed — but make it a decision, not a drift.
Break the chosen one down
In CEO Mode, turn your goal into a few clear goals underneath it, then turn each of those into steps of five minutes or less.
The five minutes is the point. A step that small is one your brain will actually start — and a goal only moves when its steps get started.
