Procrastivity is a specific type of procrastination in which priority tasks are avoided by engaging in other tasks that themselves are productive and necessary, but which end up being self-defeating because they divert time, effort, and energy from priority tasks. Thus, adults with ADHD may be busy all day but not feel productive on the most important endeavors. However, there are many useful lessons learned from procrastivity that can help increase follow through on priority tasks, including better understanding of the core cognitive themes or thinking styles in adult ADHD. These lessons reflect a foundation of cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) for adult ADHD, with an emphasis on the implementation of various coping strategies, behavior plans, and other efforts that require turning intentions into actions, which will be reviewed in the webinar.
