I can relate, 67yrs of dealing with the same. Have always tried to ensure I have external guidance and pressure, keep me on track and focused. Control your environment to set up for success, good managers and plans, remove distractions. We need others to help focus our power!

But the real suggestion is pick a passion - paint, write, run, write, act.... anything that can motivate you to focus, develop new physical and mental skills, generate lots of dopamine. Mine has always been music, but working on art now. Give your mind and body a different place to go for that part of the day, your brain is learning constantly. Your executive system will thank you.
