Keeping the routines, findings surprises. And how to apply new life to a neurodivergent brain.
Schoolwork has forced me to look for freedom in planning, timeblock planning (and as explained be Cal himself) to be precise. Listening to Deep Questions podcast and after having read “Deep Work” and Cal Newport many other books i’m slowly finding satisfaction and hope in more intentional time use (Todoist seems to work the best).
I’ve managed adding journaling, more mindfulness (and get better along with anger and other emotions), more waterintake (for the first 10 hours after waking up), more schoolwork, the occasional housecleaning.
Since spring 2020 i’m listening to Podcasts constantly and also the occasional audiobook. Since about Feb 2026 reading fiction again more after about 20 year break (finally stopped striving for the “clear answers” from non-fiction). Books are here: https://www.goodreads.com/hanneshe
