Cleaning with ADHD is all about momentum. It's like being a shark, if you stop moving you just straight up die.

Agreed. And cooking. You need to keep pace. Then it goes smoothly

And that's why I usually cook while doing the dishes.

I call it "wirbling" and imagine myself as the Tasmanian Devil from the Looney Tunes cartoons when I blitz through the house doing all the chores. Once the momentum has been built it's much easier to keep going, even on stuff I've been putting off.
