I also have a hard time with this, and I have ADD too. I love love love planning projects and being creative, thinking up new ideas, but the action - well - not so much. My therapist asked me to read a book and find my Enneagram type....

This is concise, I'm supposed to be cleaning and working lol...     Filing cabinet, 2-4 drawers, letter sized, deep. Hanging files, use a separate one for each vendor, and each customer, each account. Buy a...
