Consistency was never built for an ADHD 🧠

Consistency isn’t failing you. It was never built for an ADHD brain. ADHD creators don’t build habits. We build momentum loops. High-interest bursts. Deep focus windows. Natural drop-offs. (This is normal.) The real skill isn’t discipline. It’s knowing when to restart without shame.
