New Year’s resolutions feel so serious, don’t they? They sound like something set in stone — and that’s where the problem starts. Resolutions feel rigid and unforgiving, which doesn’t suit the flexible, creative, ever-changing nature of an ADHD brain.

Another issue is that resolutions often focus on big, long-term changes without any immediate pay-off. ADHD brains thrive on dopamine (the feel-good chemical) from small wins, not far-off, long-term rewards. If it’s boring or too far away, our brains just… switch off.

That’s why instead of New Year’s resolutions, I recommend focusing on goals instead. Goals are flexible, personal, and — most importantly — achievable. Even better, I like to break my goals down into monthly goals instead of yearly goals. This makes them smaller, more manageable, and gives you 12 fresh starts throughout the year.

If you like the idea of monthly goal setting, I’ve created the Organised Year Planner to help you do exactly that. It’s a printable tool where you can break down your big goals into monthly targets, track progress, and celebrate your wins — all in a way that works for an ADHD brain.

Welcome to Real Talk With Rhi - for Mums that want to go from surviving to thriving in motherhood in a neurospicy world.

We'll be talking about;
- how to take back control when you feel lost & disorganised in Motherhood
- Autism, the signs, the diagnosis process & how to parent kids with ASD
- ADHD in women, how to know if you have it and how to cope if you do
Are you fed up of feeling disorganised? Mummy Of Four's Organised Life Planner is here to help you get your life back on track. With a yearly overview, weekly & daily planning, task prioritising, meal planning, birthday planning, weekly reflections and notes pages & more, this planner is perfect to help you get organised & stay motivated.
