Yeah, even the fact that OP seems to think (a lot?) about focussing their mind and paying attention might suggest something in that direction. Neurotypical people don’t seem to think about that shit (read: that amazing ability to “just do the thing”) at all. But I have ADHD too, that’s why I know that shit only becomes good (or even gets done) if I actively make myself pay attention to it. I just don’t think that’s unusual per se, only that I need to work harder than other people to achieve the necessary level of attention. I also (sometimes, on good days, when I’ve just finished a piece) consider myself an artist and part of that is (most likely) due precisely to the fact that my mind doesn’t want to focus.

Maybe I’m just confused by the flowery language.
