No unironically I think this helped me writing assignments in school. Especially persuasive stuff.
Write every day… is advice for neurotypicals, not us neuro-spicy types.
Hey hey, whoa there with all the super scientific talk!
For me it was life changing good advice. But it depends on the individual I guess.
So I most of my life I would agree this is impossible, and I STILL agree "write every day" is terrible advice. But I established a morning routine (hardest thing I've ever done but it's been going for 3 years now) and followed all of the steps in the book "Write no matter what" which are mainly:
LIMIT writing time to 15min; treat it like a sprint of how many words I could get on the page (including 0) and then timing out even if I'm on a roll.
Keep "here's what to do next" note every time
It feels like riding a unicycle for the first time; there is this really specific perspective that makes it work. It's easy to fall in any direction, and there's no real advice, you must feel it yourself and make the balance work for you.
I thought I'd never be able to, but I was/am able to write for 15min a day and it ends up being a shocking amount of useful content.

I'm not gonna sign up after reading barely one paragraph. I have archived it for the rest of us 👍
You can just skip and continue reading
I didn't see that option. After archiving my mind turned somewhere else so I haven't even read the article myself.
That’s incredibly relatable. Thanks for putting the option out there.
Me, writing Lemmy comments every day. 🧠
