What you get

400 cards, delivered the moment you check out. Print them, keep them on your phone, or read them straight off the screen on a day when printing anything is out of the question.

In the download:

• A print-ready PDF, 12 cards to a page at 2 x 3 inches, about 34 pages if you run the whole thing

• A single-card-per-page version for large-format printing or reading on a screen

• Your unlock code for the Dopamine Farming app, so all 400 live in your pocket too

You do not have to print all 400. Most people run one page, cut it up, and carry the handful that applies to the week they are actually having.

Yours permanently. No subscription, no account to keep alive, no login that expires the week you finally need it. Download it again any time.

How you get it

Your files arrive by email within a few minutes of checkout, along with the link that adds this deck to the Dopamine Farming app.

Is this deck for you?

[One or two lines about this specific deck: which wing it belongs to, which flavour of stuck it meets, and what somebody is usually in the middle of when they reach for it.]

Built by a neurodivergent educator for neurodivergent brains. No shame, no productivity gospel, no assumption that you would be fine if you just tried harder. The problem was never that you are lazy. The problem is that most systems were designed for a brain that is not yours.

DIRECUTIVE DYSFUNCTION™ CARD DECK
A theatre-themed system for executive dysfunction
Over 500 cards, three levels

Neurodivergent people are not broken versions of neurotypical people. We are running a different operating system. Motivation works differently. Task initiation is a neurological event, and most resources completely ignore that.

These are called Direcutive Dysfunction Cards for Executive Dysfunction, which is a stupid little pun and also extremely literal. They exist because most tools for neurodivergent people are not actually made for neurodivergent people. They are made for neurotypical people’s idea of us.

My brain does not move because it is told to. It moves because something is interesting, novel, urgent, playful, or emotionally charged. That is just how the wiring works. So I made cards.

Each card gives you a short insight, a Stage Note, and a Cue Prompt. You pull one card. You try it or you ignore it. Either is allowed.

The deck is split into three levels:

 Intermediate (THIS PACK!!!)adds strategy, working with momentum, novelty, energy, and time distortion.

A fully theatrical system that treats executive dysfunction like a performance problem, not a moral failure, using play, rehearsal, blocking, and role to initiate action.

• Three distinct levels so you can meet your brain where it is, not where productivity culture thinks it should be.

• Built for brains that want tools that work with INCUP motivation instead of fighting it.

  • • Uses novelty, time distortion, energy shifts, and playful structure to create forward motion.

  • • Strategic prompts that help you harness momentum once it appears.



Novice Designed for moments when your nervous system is loud and Nothing seems important or FUN

Advanced leans into performance, challenge, and stakes, hacking motivation through play, role, and meaning.

You do not have to use them in order. You do not have to graduate. You are allowed to pull from whatever deck meets you where you are that day. That flexibility is intentional.

Cards are small. Cards are portable. Cards don’t demand your entire life. You can interact with them when you have energy and forget they exist when you don’t.

Digital download. Print or use on your device.
