Something sounding easy but being absolutely out of your control. There are different types of ADHD. If you have a constant compulsive need for being elsewhere and doing something else, there is no mental exercise that would make you stick to things and stop finding yourself doing something else than supposed. When required to do activity A, you'll find yourself exercising activity B or activity C only a short time, and every time, after forcing yourself back to A. When you decide to do B, since you can't focus on A, you'll quickly find yourself back at A because you're supposed to be doing B. Oh, and now it's C. And back to A. What fun. ABCAABCCABCCAABC. Forced, barely controlled multi-tasking.
