Using Arch Calendar
When You Work With ADHD

With ADHD, your mind is always busy,
but it’s often hard to know what to start with.
Arch Calendar gathers all those scattered tasks into one place,
breaks them into smaller steps, and clearly separates
what you need to do now from what can wait until later.

If you live with ADHD, countless ideas and tasks can surface in your mind all at once, and it is easy to get pulled toward things that are not really important. At work, meetings, discussions, and requests from colleagues keep coming, and sometimes the truly important tasks end up slipping through the cracks. When you spend too much energy just organizing information and managing your schedule, you can reach the end of the day feeling exhausted, with almost no memory of what you actually got done.

Arch Calendar is a tool that helps you hold onto the fast and scattered thinking patterns that are common with ADHD. First, capture every passing idea and task in the Inbox as soon as it appears. When you build the habit of writing things down and then letting them go, the fear of forgetting important details starts to fade and your mind feels clearer. Next, move the organized items into your calendar and turn them into plans you can actually act on. If prioritizing is hard, you can use tags and filters to mark urgency and importance and see what should come first.

If you have a lot of meetings or collaborative work, you can share your calendar with teammates so everyone can see each other’s time and responsibilities more transparently. Stick to agreed meeting times, and record action items from meetings right away so they do not get lost. You can also create templates for recurring tasks, which saves the effort of planning the same kind of work from scratch every time.

When ADHD makes it hard to stay in a steady rhythm of focus, you can use focus blocks to reduce distractions. By cutting down unnecessary notifications and choosing one or two key tasks to concentrate on, you can build up small wins throughout the day. Arch Calendar is designed with these challenges in mind and supports you in putting more of your energy into what truly matters.

Having ADHD does not just mean it is hard to focus. It means you take in the world faster and more widely. The challenge is that this pace does not always match the rhythm of your company or your work. What you need is not a new personality, but a structure that can safely hold and organize your natural speed. For someone whose ideas keep coming, a “second brain” that catches and keeps those ideas from slipping away is essential.
