What's actually hard
- •Staring at an empty technical specification document while your brain spins through fifty edge cases at once
- •Delaying a critical code review because breaking down the massive diff feels completely overwhelming
- •Getting hyperfocused on refactoring a tiny helper function while the primary ticket sits untouched for days
How Spark fits into your day
- Use a 2-minute technical spec draft to turn scattered system ideas into a basic markdown outline
- Run a 2-minute pull request starter to review just the core interface changes without opening every file
- Launch a 2-minute ticket breakdown sprint to convert a vague architecture epic into micro-tasks you can build immediately
Break the freeze at your desk
Spark helps engineers bypass executive dysfunction by turning overwhelming technical tasks into immediate two-minute micro-steps. It works alongside your brain's natural wiring to build momentum without the friction of getting started. 2-minute first moves, on your phone, no planning required.
Transition between tasks with a short ritual: close the previous task, take a 2-minute movement break, and name the next first step. The ritual gives the brain a bridge between two different mental states. Without it, the previous task lingers and the next one never starts.
Executive dysfunction is the umbrella: an ongoing difficulty with planning, starting, sequencing and finishing. ADHD paralysis is one acute episode inside it — the moment you're stuck and cannot move at all. Executive dysfunction is the condition; paralysis is the symptom flaring up.
