yep the whole “reward yourself to provide incentive to do the tasks you hate” doesn’t work well at all for me because my jerk brain will just be like “you’re not the boss of me i’m gonna do what i want anyways” ugh i don’t know if this is just me or an adhd thing but i’m trying to become more accepting of the fact that some approaches just don’t work for me and that’s okay there’s no one “right” way to get things done  a strategy that sometimes works for me is breaking down a task into as small of pieces as possible i think a to-do item like “clean the house” seems so big and vague that we subconsciously shut down around it where do you start what areas of the house are high priority and should be done first how will you know when you’re done how long will it take so instead  break it down into smaller tasks make a list like “gather up dirty clothes” “pick up trash in living room” “organize stack of mail into bills and junk” etc and start working through those tasks if there’s things that need to be completed in order to do that task for instance you need to get your oil changed in your car but don’t know where to take the car include googling a mechanic on your list too often this can be enough to overcome that inertia of not wanting to do the thing and even if it’s not quite enough you at least have a detailed list of what you have to do so that you can come back to it another time hope this helps a bit
