Outsourcing your Brain


Listen Later

In today's episode, we will discuss the concept of outsourcing your brain and how it can help you to manage your ADHD symptoms and lead a more fulfilling life.

Outsourcing your brain can be an effective way for those with ADHD to manage their symptoms. It can mean implementing systems to make your life easier, making decisions ahead of time, or even hiring a professional to take care of tasks for you. The goal is to free up mental space so that you can focus on the things that matter most to you.

When you have ADHD, your brain is constantly in overdrive, making it difficult to stay on task and manage day-to-day activities. By outsourcing burdensome activities, you are able to live a more full life and create more resources and progress. This can lead to increased productivity, improved relationships, and a greater sense of well-being.

There are many different ways to outsource your brain, and the best method will vary depending on your individual needs and circumstances. Some options include:

  • Implementing systems to streamline your workflow and automate repetitive tasks
  • Making decisions ahead of time to eliminate decision fatigue
  • Hiring a professional to take care of tasks for you, such as a virtual assistant or personal concierge
  • Utilizing outsourcing platforms such as Fiverr or Upwork to find qualified individuals to help you with specific tasks
  • For some people with ADHD, the idea of outsourcing their brain may be met with resistance. This can be due to a fear of losing control or a sense of guilt for not being able to manage everything on their own. However, it is important to remember that outsourcing is not a sign of weakness, but rather a strategic way to maximize your resources and achieve your goals. By taking the time to identify your priorities and delegate tasks accordingly, you can create a more balanced and fulfilling life.

    Living with ADHD can be challenging, but by outsourcing your brain and freeing up mental space, you can manage your symptoms more effectively and live a more intentional and fulfilling life. Whether you choose to implement systems, make decisions ahead of time, or hire a professional, the benefits of outsourcing are undeniable. So why not give it a try and see how it can transform your life? Thanks for tuning in to The Busy Brained Saint, and we'll see you next time!
