no fluff

ArcGIS Pro Python reference—ArcGIS Pro | Documentation

You can look into applications like Sololearn that will help you learn the basics of python in a semi-entertaining, but mostly dopamine inducing way (this will probably be good for you with ADHD). After that, using something like the reference linked by @DanPatterson to run through basic workflows will be good.

Beyond that, learning to program becomes more about what you use it for. Learning a bunch of class methods to manipulate raster data and perform regressions is going to be pretty well lost on you if you are only working with manipulating tabular data and editing attributes. It's always my recommendation to come up with some sort of project you want to work on, and learn the skills that you need to complete that. Then repeat the process over and over again. It will hold more meaning and be more "entertaining" for you this way!

In general, I'd say it helps if you have a specific task or project that you want to get done.

Here is a series of tutorials on Python in ArcGIS Pro:

For learning the basics of Python, I like Think Python second edition (I see there is a collab-notebook 3rd edition, haven't tried it). Lots of Monty Python jokes, and solid fundamentals of Python.
