Re: Why Some Entrepreneurs Call ADHD a Superpower

Tangents aren’t all bad. On the plus side, some of the most interesting conversations I’ve had had nothing to do with the original subject.

Sometimes I do it all in my head. I talking about one thing, my mind jumps 5 topics over, and I come out with some odd, seemingly off-topic comments. I try to backtrack and explain to my wife why pork loin reminded me to ask about her mother, if only to get out of trouble:

Outside my head: Her: “Ooh, I’d like a nice juicy piece of pork loin.”

Me: “Yeah…So, how’s you’re mom doing.”

Inside my head: “Ooh, I’d like a nice juicy piece of pork loin”–barbecue–got to clean the barbecue–shed–bugs in the shed–squirrels in the attic–that time I broke her mom’s attic door–“How’s you’re mom doing.”
