#Today #3Things

1. Our workers built a simple shelter at the side of our driveway to keep the rain off our little farm vehicle, pic below. Has room for future improvement but they showed initiative and it's a good use of spare lumber and tin roofing we had lying around. I grabbed a post and gave it a good shake - rock solid. #RusiChariot

2. I got out my modelling tools and built some lineside huts for the #ModelRailway (laser-cut kits from Modellbahn Union).

3. A post I made yesterday about #ExecutiveDysfunction and #TaskParalysis got some traction and hopefully I've helped a few people think more compassionately about themselves.

#AuDHD #ADHD #Autism #ExecutiveDysfunction #TaskParalysis

You know what most often gets me stuck? Dependencies. This can happen in programming, in DIY, in housework, anything really.

This is how it goes:

I need to do A. Ah, but in order to do A, I have to do B first. Oh damn, before I can do B, I have to do C. And oh shit, C is pointless until I do D (this sometimes continues through half the alphabet...)

By the time I've worked out all the dependencies so I know what has to come first, I'm screwed. Motivation has left the building. The list is longer than I have the #spoons for, my sense of future time has disappeared and I shut down.

Now I'm writing about it, probably the best thing is to just try and do the first task *but* ignore the fact that all the others depend on it. But it's easy to forget that when you're in the thick of it, your anxiety is building and your spoons are disappearing left and right.

#CarAudio #Suzuki #Vitara #Music #TaskParalysis

I play music in my car via a USB stick (no carplay, and buggy bluetooth). For the longest time (years!) I've had problems with certain song files and I just couldn't figure out what was wrong.

I finally forced myself to pull my finger out of my arse and diagnose it properly. I found a Suzuki spec sheet for file types and started a process of re-encoding and re-tagging with the help of MediaHuman Audio Converter and Kid3 on my Mac.

After several rounds of testing I eventually established:

1. Bitrate is crucial
2. Encoder is also crucial
3. Tag length is also crucial
4. Filename length is also crucial
5. Punctuation in filenames is also crucial
6. Filesystem path length is also crucial
7. Having a stick that doesn't overheat is also crucial

So now on my computer, aside from my main music library which is part FLAC and part MP3 320, I now have a "car stick" folder which has everything as AAC (M4A) files, bitrate 196, no MP3 tags at all, and a simple folder structure with filenames that include artist, album and track but have no non-ASCII characters in them.

Finally I can play all the albums that were mysteriously refusing to play in the car. #Slint, #SecretMachines, #Mogwai, #Mono, to name but a few.

30% of planned study sessions were procrastinated. The biggest predictor wasn't difficulty, it was ambiguity. When you don't know how to start, you don't start. Clarity is an underrated productivity tool.

That important task that’s been sitting there for three days?
Your brain is telling you something. Persistent avoidance is data — about the task, not about you.
Listen before you push harder.

Hiya, can all of you please nag & pester me to unsubscribe from the #Spotify family plan & to subscribe to equivalent #QoBuz plan ASAP? Also, remind me to transfer artists/playlists over to QoBuz, before leaving Spotify... Thanks so much! #Music #Procrastination #TaskParalysis #ADHD #Accountability

I'm still new to being medicated for ADHD (I don't have an official diagnosis, but my doctor says I either have ADHD or my bipolar is mimicking it). I'm still struggling with task paralysis and ambition and not getting sidetracked and forgetting things. I think I need a med adjustment. I don't see my doctor again until September. I've been bugging him with a lot of stuff lately so I don't want to ask for an adjustment now. Tips for getting things done with ADHD?
