The Flipside

I want to talk about the gift of ADHD today. Sure there are loads of challenges in everyday life for someone with ADHD but there is a flip side for just about every one of them. For example, the challenge of  difficulty with staying connected with time, the past present future etc creates the wonderful ability to live in the now, be spontaneous and see each day anew. The challenge of speaking before one thinks is the source of much of the spark and humor, and quick wit of ADHD folks. The ADHD day dreamer who walks to the bet of their own drum is also the inventor and the impulsive risk taker is the entrepreneur, The emotional intensity of ADHD  is the source of empathy, caring and authenticity. Life with ADHD can be a challenge for sure. Which is why I challenge you to think about a challenge of ADHD and find the flip side. I promise you it's there.
