Nordmeyer, the founding partner and general manager of the ADHD Coaching Group near Minneapolis, and Nordmeyer, the founding partner and general manager of the Good Life Center, said, orum I have to do a job and I have to balance many different areas of work. ”
Nordmeyer said, “Some of them are very easy – as if in my wheel house, they give me energy, I can’t wait to reach them,” he said. “And some of them are a little more boring or there are some resistance around them.”
What Nordymeyer does to go through these hard tasks is sometimes known as “the body to double ,, which is a productivity and self -aid strategy that includes working with another person to improve motivation and focus. People with ADHD have been popular for some time during their pandemia.

How to use the body effectively
The body can help almost every task that you have difficulty in ending, whether it folds, work, housework, exercise, school or document works. The activity you need for the body to fold in half – such as exercise – does not have to do the same thing as the other person unless it requires help.
Be selective about you want your body to double. A person must be determined to complete your business like you, Robert Roberts said – it doesn’t bother you with a conversation or anything else. Usually choose someone who makes you feel comfortable and safe and can encourage you when necessary.
“It is important to focus a body session on your purpose, Nord said Nordmeyer. If the speeches came, maybe he stung them during a break or dinner.
It might feel strange to ask someone to be a double, but Roberts said the best approach is often simple. “This is something I hear that you can help productivity. Do you think about being around me while working on it? Maybe there is something you can work on.”

The benefits of the body is that some people like to work on coffee shops, libraries or work areas – this is if there is no one to ask, Roberts said.
