Getting everything ready for our PBS appearance last week was a real lesson in motivation and procrastination…
We are working on the last stages of four new videos. Follow ups to ADD & Loving It?! Count ‘em, Four!
On Saturday, June 9, Patrick and I will be on the air on the Baltimore PBS station, MPT, for the world premiere of ADD & Mastering It!…
Had an interesting experience a few days back. My energy was up, I was workin’ away, and then my energy flagged a bit… and then went up a bit… and then (sound of slide whistle going down) THUD!
Suddenly, it’s like I’m 88 years old. Falling asleep at 3:00 in the afternoon, while reading. And what was I reading?…
So we are working on a sequel to ADD & Loving It?! A Part 2. The next step. Taking it to the next level.
ADD & Loving It?! won awards because it dared…
When I started training for the bike rally I was 20 pounds overweight, and had enough muscle to be able to get up from my computer, get to the dining room table and then make it to bed.
So I’ve been blogging about how I, an ADHD adult, managed to train for a 368 mile/6 day bike rally in less than three months. Bearing in mind that I was out of shape, didn’t have a bike, hadn’t ridden in years, and the other 190 riders had been training for 6 weeks.
I pulled it off using the same strategies I’ve used to manage and even master my ADHD…
Once I’d committed to doing the rally, I started training. But I had to use a mountain bike with ancient knobby tires. Even adjusting the seat didn’t hide the fact that it was a girl’s bike.
I had to break the bike rally into chunks. Manageable chunks.And since I didn’t own a bike, hadn’t ridden one in a decade, was out of shape, overweight and late to start the training regime, those chunks had to be very, very minute to be manageable.
There are 7 billion people on the planet. None of them are living exactly the way I do. They don’t share the exact same beliefs about everything, or the exact same interests. And since I always do what I think is right, that makes them, everyone else wrong. Am I right? Of course I am.
