Replying to @Sara Vazquez lets talk about the novelty/ play motivation type!! Neurodivergent folks are motivated by different things that neurotypical people. Neurotypical people can think “I should do that” and then go and complete that task no problem, whereas neurodivergent folks can genuinely WANT to do a task, but still struggle to initiate it. Our brains don’t respond to “should’s” - which also might be why telling yourself “I should get my finances together” won’t actually help you start 😅 Here are 4 types of motivation that might work better for you: 1️⃣ pressure/ urgency
Motivation as a result of the pressure or sense of urgency you feel around that task.
This pressure can come from yourself or others. It can also be time pressure (like a deadline) or financial pressure (like late fees) 2️⃣ interest/ passion
Motivation as a result of being excited and interested in that task.
If you can easily engage + focus on tasks that interest you, but struggle to even initiate tasks that don’t, you might benefit from interest/ passion motivation. 3️⃣ competition/ challenge Motivated by the idea of winning something or beating someone
This type of motivation usually either works really well or doesn’t work at all for neurodivergent folks. Personally, I love a good competition 😈 (in the right setting) 4️⃣ novelty/ play
Motivated by tasks that are shiny and new
Your brain wants to explore, learn and grow, and you get a hit of dopamine when you start new and exciting tasks. Now that you have a better idea of the types of motivation that work, you can actually leverage these to help you complete tasks 🔥 #adhdfinance #adhdandmoney #adhdinadults #adhdhacks #adhdmotivation #adhdmotivators #personalfinance #financialeducator #moneymanagement #keepfinancepersonal #queerdco
