That said, people with different executive function need different things. "Just do it" is about as helpful as "don't be sad".

To be clear, I'm not saying "just do it" or suggesting anything quick or easy. Quite the opposite: coping strategies like this are imo the "easy way out". I'm suggesting a much slower, harder path that leads to long term results (& can't be generalised, packaged & sold in a neat article as it's entirely different for everyone).
e.g. I would never do something that’s challenging, not mandatory, yet potentially beneficial like disputing a charge, requesting renumeration etc.
But I can put the docs in a folder, ask AI about the next step, ask it to take it or at least write the copy.
That seems to be a lot of reduced mental load and gets me do things I otherwise could postpone for months or never do.
There's a prompt I used while moving out, where I had claude ask me questions, what is in each room. And then once we had this item list, organizing it.
That's a powerful pattern also for engineering. Can recommend.
