What is it?

Think of your brain like a car. Executive dysfunction is when the starter motor breaks. Task paralysis is the feeling of being stuck in park while you press the gas pedal.

Signs & Symptoms

Feeling physically unable to get up
Staring at a to-do list for hours
Doing 'fake work' like scrolling social media
Feeling a heavy weight in your chest

Why does this happen?

Your brain sees a task and thinks it is a scary monster. It gets flooded with stress and shuts down to protect you.

The Action Plan

Try breaking down your next task like this to overcome the block:
1

Wiggle your toes

1m

Just focus on moving one small part of your body first.

2

Drink some water

2m

Hydration helps your brain's battery reset a little bit.

3

Touch one item

1m

Pick up one thing related to your task and just hold it.

Stop fighting your brain.
