ADHD and OCD brain can't find a system that works!
Hey, I've been so down the last couple of days. I need to get my organization and thoughts in order but nothing seems to work out.
I tried ring planers before because I like the versatility of adding peaces and removing them quickly but it also overwhelmed me at the same time. Too much decoration and stuff is distracting for me and pulls me away from the actual work, but no stimulation at all bores me.
With ring planers my biggest dislike is that the rings bother me when I am writing on the go. I need a system where I can quickly write down my thoughts without it being a big hassle as to how I position the planer.
After that I tried travelors notebook which I still have but it's also not quite right enough.
With this I like that writing on it is very smooth and convinient because no rings and it is nice and slim. But I don't like that I can't switch pages easily and put one page inserts into it.
Honestly, I would need a system that combines the good of both of these planers.
I need a place where I can easily and quickly grab my stuff and write something on the go but I also need a fixed place where I store information that is just for flipping through or looking at, no writing on the go required.
I find it too hard to combine these things. I also want things to be divided by topics, not mashed together. I get confused too easily when things are not seperated but I also wouldn't want to carry two planers at the same time.
It needs to be clearly seperated but not split apart. I know it's difficult with my brain 😅.
I am so desperate to find a solution. My life is falling apart because I can't get anything done without becoming organized 😢.
Do you have thoughts on my predicament?
