Show Notes
Neurodivergent folks may not experience habits in the way they're traditionally talked about. Specifically, they may never become truly "background," and instead we remain in the active decision-making mode.
To that end, I've personally found it much more helpful to create rituals rather than habits. It explicitly acknowledges that this is an active process as opposed to a background habit, which is more honest about how our brains work. It also triggers my PDA (demand avoidance) far less!
This episode suggests some starting points, including:
- Choosing a task or time of day to build ritual around
- Finding your "why" and brainstorming possibilities
- Pare down to an initial ritual of a few steps
- Gather materials
