Building Focus Like a Muscle: Training Your ADHD Brain

Focus isn’t a fixed skill — it’s a muscle that strengthens with practice. For people with ADHD, attention naturally fluctuates, but that doesn’t mean it can’t be trained.

Each time you notice your mind wander and gently return to the task, you’re reinforcing the neural pathway for focus. Over time, these “focus reps” improve endurance and reduce the mental effort needed to stay on track.

ADHD coaching helps identify your ideal focus intervals, create task-warm-up rituals, and measure progress in realistic ways.

Just like physical fitness, consistency matters more than perfection.
