ADHD Single Tab Work Rule
ADHD single tab work rule limits digital workspaces to one active tab and one document per sprint, parking other links in a capture list to cut context-switch tax.
ADHD single tab work rule closes extra browser tabs, hides chat, and keeps one document active for the length of a focus sprint. Each tab is an open loop screaming for attention.
Park URLs in a capture doc titled later—not now. Full-screen modes reduce peripheral UI noise.
Pair with visual timers.
