I built the tool. Put it all together myself ... Python script, Google Calendar, my projects, tasks for the day. Popped up every morning at 9am like clockwork. It worked perfectly. I still didn't use it. And that's the moment everything cracked open. Because I'd built the thing. The information was right there. And my brain still wouldn't cooperate. That wasn't laziness. That wasn't lack of effort. That was the moment I realised the problem was never me, and it was never the apps either. It was that nothing had ever been built for a brain like mine. I wrote about what happened next. Link in comments
