TIPS & TRICKS FOR Scattered SageS

  • 01 Anchor the day with one non-negotiable: Same morning drink, same walk, same seat. Predictability creates focus.
  • 02 Externalize memory: Use alarms, calendars, and written lists instead of relying on recall.
  • 03 Move the body to calm the mind: Short bursts of movement help settle restlessness better than sitting still.
  • 04 Reduce sensory stacking: Loud music + screens + multitasking increases burnout. Choose one stimulant at a time.
  • 05 Finish one small thing daily: Completion builds regulation and confidence more than starting five new ideas.
  • 06 Dopamine free mornings: No screen time within the hour after waking and accomplish 2 simple tasks first thing in the morning.
