05:48 The Pomodoro Technique for managing time for doing a task
10:32 The Eisenhower Matrix for how to prioritize tasks that one needs or wants to do
14:56 Summary of video main points and Conclusion

In this video, I discuss why people with ADHD have trouble with time. Then I discussed ways to externalize time to compensate for the internally impaired mental clock and sense of time. Using timers and set intervals for working on tasks can help with this issue. One method to help when using a timer, is the Pomodoro Technique. I illustrate its use here. Then I discuss how to prioritize tasks into the Eisenhower matrix so as to sort them into those that are important vs. non-important. Using this 3 methods can help people with ADHD with time management
