Why distractions pile up
ADHD brains chase novelty. Sounds, visuals, and incoming stimuli each tug attention. You need a system that blocks multiple inputs at once, not willpower.
Defensive setup
Make good habits easier than distractions. Place a pair of Anker Soundcore Life P3 noise cancelling earbuds ready to block noise. Keep a Philips SmartSleep sunrise alarm or light source to anchor your focus with light, not sound.
