I don’t know about you, but I love language. I love words that stick with you, that ring true or hit home.
It is sometimes hard to learn and remember words so we will have a new word each week.

SLAPDASH
Slapdash is an adjective that describes something that is done too hurriedly and carelessly. I chose it because, well, those of us that struggle with executive dysfunction often live our lives this way without realizing there is another way to live. We don’t know how to acquire or how to use the tools necessary to not live a life consistently filled with slapdash events and actions.
How Can You Use “Slapdash” This Week?
Example: “In an effort to not have a slapdash presentation, I worked hard to be prepared well ahead of time. By that I mean the night before.” Unfortunately, this is true.
What Can You Do To Avoid Having a Slapdash Week?
Some simple examples might include:
- Prepping your outfits for the week ahead of time so you don’t have a slapdash morning.
- Checking the fuel gauge on the way home to make sure you don’t have a slapdash commute the next morning.
- Try to not multi-task so you don’t perform slapdash work.
I would love to hear your ideas for this word too!
