    I legit do something similar to this for my ADHD. I make 6,8, or 10 item long lists of tasks, then roll a die to choose what to do. I pair it with a similar list of rewards that I can roll on when I complete a task.

      Love it! I thought about allowing users to add their task lists as an A/B test but decided to keep the original version as MVP to keep it separate from conventional to-do lists. For how long you`ve been doing this? Curious about long-term benefits if you don`t mind sharing.

        I don't do it all the time, usually just when I feel swamped with a bunch of different tasks. I also try to time box it, so no matter what I roll I work on it for a predictable length of time. I think the most effective part for me is not letting myself say no to whatever comes up - I just have to do my best. I feel like it's really helpful when I'm struggling to just set down and focus on one thing.
