How do I get back to work after a break with ADHD?

Before you leave, write one line: "Next I will ___." When you come back, read only that line, do the smallest piece of it for two to five minutes, check how your body is, then choose to keep going for ten more minutes or pick a different small task. Either counts as returning.

Before you leave

One line, and leave the work open where you can see it.

When you come back

Read the line, not everything else. Do the smallest piece.

Why it helps

The break is rarely the problem. Getting back is.
