Who this session model is best for

  • People who focus better when others are visibly working at the same time.
  • ADHD-friendly workflows needing short goals and predictable resets.
  • Users seeking calm, camera-optional study accountability.

Local facilitation playbook for Chicago

Chicago study groups benefit from steady weekday cadence and clear role separation between focus time and social time.

Where to anchor sessions

  • Run one consistent room for weekday repeats and one optional weekend deep-work room.
  • Use neighborhood or campus clusters to keep recurring membership stable.
  • Keep kickoff instructions concise so late joiners can recover quickly.

Scheduling reality

  • Morning block (7:30-9:00 AM CT): deep individual work.
  • Midday block (12:00-1:30 PM CT): short accountability cycle.
  • Evening block (6:30-9:00 PM CT): strongest group overlap.

Host prompts that work

  • Kickoff prompt: One task, one timer, one done definition.
  • Midpoint prompt: Report progress in one sentence.
  • Wrap prompt: What is locked for tomorrow's first block?

One-hour high-focus runbook

0-6 min: intent and baseline

Set one measurable target for Adhd Body Doubling collaboration and estimate what completion looks like.

6-26 min: first execution block

Run a short focused cycle to build momentum and surface uncertainty early.

26-30 min: quick checkpoint

Update progress, trim scope if needed, and queue the most valuable next move.

30-60 min: longer consolidation block

Use the second block to finish priority work and leave clean handoff notes for your next session.

What to prioritize in this room

  • Pick one tiny but concrete outcome for the first block.
  • Use short check-ins to report progress, blockers, and next action.
  • Close with one win and one next step so re-entry is frictionless.

Avoidable mistakes and better defaults

Launching without explicit collaboration norms

Set one-line norms at kickoff: task clarity, camera optional, recap required.

Letting check-ins turn into long status chatter

Keep check-ins to one blocker and one next move per person.

Using one pace for mixed workloads

Allow parallel sprint goals, but synchronize break and recap timestamps.

Ending without shared accountability

Close with each member posting one shipped output and next start task.

Host script for repeat sessions

  • Kickoff script: each person shares one measurable task.
  • Midpoint script: ask for one blocker and one adjustment.
  • Wrap script: each person posts one win + one next step.

Pair this with facilitation basicsand repeatable schedule design so groups return consistently.
