How to Prioritize Time and Energy with ADHD or Chronic Health Issues
Managing time and energy as an entrepreneur can be challenging, especially if you’re dealing with ADHD or chronic health issues. In this episode of Online Business AMA, Lauren shares her own struggles and strategies for balancing work with fluctuating energy levels.
One key tool is the Eisenhower Matrix, which helps prioritize tasks by urgency and importance. Instead of getting caught up in low-impact tasks, this matrix lets you zero in on what truly needs your attention. Lauren also recommends a daily brain dump—jotting down everything on your mind helps relieve mental clutter, reduces overwhelm, and clarifies your priorities.
Energy management is equally important. Lauren suggests observing your energy peaks and planning your most demanding tasks around those times. She also encourages tracking mood cycles and understanding natural rhythms to better adapt your schedule.
Above all, Lauren emphasizes self-compassion. Productivity doesn’t need to be fast to be meaningful, and there’s no value in comparing yourself to others. By taking small, consistent steps, even if they seem slow, you’re making meaningful progress.
