I am very good at creating detail To-Do list and I am on Adderall thus I can concentrate but my biggest issue is doing the most important tasks on the To Do list. These tasks may be things I do not like to do but I have to to do. The feeling is like an invisible rope has tied my hands. Been suffering with this for a long time, has affected my life a lot and still cant find a solution.

I usually schedule these on my calendar as small self-contained chunks, scoped to 25 minutes (recursively break the next actionable step into it)

That has helped me a bit in making progress on things that are important, but not really exciting, such as documentation.

Mandatory Note, this does not work, if you have a lot of such things to do,in which a team or role change would help.
