People with AD(H)D think differently and personally - I love my AD(H)D, even though it can be very hard and difficult at times - but overall it made me more creative, smarter, funny & quick.

Learn to use how you think and don't let other people put you down - your mind is a gift not a curse!

This week's ADHD Solution is: Watch your body clock.


ADHD is inconsistent. Sometimes we can do things easily, and other times, the exact same task is nearly impossible. It’s unpredictable. But sometimes you can find a pattern when you look at your body rhythms. Are you a night owl? Usually sleepy after lunch? Unstoppable right after your morning coffee kicks in?

Identifying your most productive time of day will help you make the best use of your time. Tackle your most difficult, important work when you’re at your best. You’ll be more likely to complete it, and complete it well. Conversely, it may be counterproductive to work on mission critical tasks when your energy is low.

I used to work late at night after my son went to bed. It seemed like a great way to juggle the demands of motherhood and career. But more often than not, when I reviewed my work the next morning, it was incoherent, full of mistakes, and had to be redone. After a while I made the connection. I don’t work late at night any more.

When are you at your best? How can you restructure your work accordingly?
