00:00 Do you say you have eight alarm calls in the morning?

00:02 I do. I've developed a slow process of waking up,

00:07 processing waking up and not waking up in a panic of,

00:10 "I've got to get up and I've got to do things now."

00:13 Is that linked to your ADHD?

00:15 Yeah, yeah, a little bit, but in a good way.

00:18 So it's just being able to have manageable chunks, really?

00:21 It's allowing all that to come in,

00:24 absorb it, have another kip, wake up, trim off,

00:29 trim off the things that don't need doing,

00:31 have a kip, wake up, wake up,

00:33 and eventually get out of bed and go,

00:35 "Well, first things first, what's achievable today?"

00:38 Rather than hiding behind, setting yourself a massive task

00:42 that has nothing to do with what needs to be done.
