How to Do Something When You Can't Do Anything

Why does getting things done feel impossible?

You set goals, make plans, and promise yourself this time will be different. Then the motivation fades, the plans collapse, and you’re stuck again.Ghost Habits shows you a different way.Instead of repeating the same advice that never works, this book explains why common strategies fall short and what really helps when focus and energy aren’t there.It’s about letting go of the habits, routines, and lists that never worked and uncovering what does.Inside, you’ll discover how to:

  • Overcome the biggest focus stealers holding you back

  • Stop blaming yourself when discipline isn’t enough

  • Escape the cycle of guilt, avoidance, and burnout

  • Work with your brain instead of against it

  • Devise strategies that feel flexible and sustainable

Practical, compassionate, and built for real life, Ghost Habits is for anyone who struggles to start, focus, or finish, including people with ADHD, autism, and anyone who feels left behind by hustle culture.With Ghost Habits, you’ll learn how to move forward at your own pace and actually keep going.
