What exactly is "Blocked Energy?" Blocked energy is, in essence, when you want to move forward in an area in your business, but you find yourself feeling stuck. How do you know when you're experiencing it in your business?

I recently met up with a friend of mine who was telling me how little time he had working on his business due to the people problems he was constantly experiencing. He always complains to me that if he could run his business on his own, he would. Unfortunately this is not a reality so he ...

After the breakup between you and your girlfriend, she becomes your ex girlfriend. It is very obvious that you can see her getting involved with other guys instantly. It mostly happens after a fresh breakup. These guys are called rebound boyfriends and girls do this to make their ego boost. They do this to show you and everyone else that she can live happily without you and you don't exist in her life and she is also not interested in you anymore. But, it is you who know the real fact.

You may have your priorities straight but still, many Americans struggle daily with a lack of motivation that can hinder their productivity at work and in their daily life. Many times, their lack of motivation can be falsely diagnosed by medical professionals as ADHD, nutrient deficiency, and even depression. However, sometimes all the person needs to get out of their funk is to implement simple steps in their daily life that will put drive back into their routine and help th

There are many theories on how to best reach out to customers through telemarketing. The different strategies and approaches are so ubiquitous, you may wonder how they could possibly work. Before you decide that it’s time to reinvent the wheel, remember that the strategies you see repeated seemingly everywhere are everywhere for a reason - they often work. Here are 10 tips to executing a successful outbound telemarketing or appointment setting campaign: rn1. Contact the dec

For people with a low self-esteem, improving your self esteem must become a pre-requisite for your journey to success. That does not mean that you cannot start your journey but in parallel, also work on improving your self-esteem.

We are all extremely busy. Many of us have an Internet business that we are trying to grow. Many of us have a full time job and a website that we are trying to expand. Others are just struggling to balance our career, our health, our family, our friends and our finances. I personally am trying to grow my website, SelfGrowth.com, help my wife raise 3 young children, have a healthy marriage, take care of my health, have a personal life, travel, learn and the list goes on and

Time is a finite resource. As much as we would like to solve the problem of "not enough time" by adding another hour or two to the day, it is not possible. We are always limited by this fixed, yet elusive commodity which is why it can be so frustrating when we feel robbed of the time we need.

When you’re living with ADHD (in yourself or a loved one), every day can feel like a struggle. And when you find something that works to make everyday life run just a little bit smoother, that one tip can be a lifesaver! And if that tip was shared with you by someone else, you feel ete ally grateful for their time and generosity. Over the next two blog posts, I’m going to talk about 3 ways you can pay it forward, and bring a little bit of happiness to the lives of others with ADHD.

It’s an undeniable fact - most New Year’s resolutions fail. Not because we don’t want to improve our situation or have a lack of motivation – we do! The truth is, most of us don’t take the time to really create goals that will work for us. When January 1st rolls around, there’s tremendous pressure to outline goals and resolutions for the next 365 days. Many of us are exhausted from the holiday celebrations and we jump into kneejerk promises- lose weight, focus more, etc. We don’t take the time to really assess where we hurt or dream the most.

If Everything is Important, then Nothing is Important… I love the phrase “If everything is important, then nothing is important”. I have no idea who said it or where it came from, but I’m sure I read it somewhere at some point, and I use it a lot. There is something about it that is so concise, so precise, so to-the-point. It addresses our obsession as a society to multi-tasking and speaks to everything from our in-boxes to our life values.

I am sure it is not the first time you have read about the grave consequences of negative thinking. The movie ¨The Secret¨ did really well at creating awareness around the impact of our thoughts on our lives. It has also been scientifically proven that our thoughts directly influence our lives and there is a wealth of information that can be found warning every one of the dangers of thinking negatively, and rightly so! Your thoughts affect your current health, your successes in life, your relationships, your finances, they influence everything.

Procrastination – probably the number one cause for people to be disorganised, for not achieving what they want, for not being the best they could be. What people don’t realise, however, you only need the right tools to conquer it. Procrastination is a little bit like an addiction, once you suffer from it you have got to battle it and keep on top of it for the rest of your life. It is so easy to slip back. But also, like any other addiction, it can be overcome. And now, l

This month I wanted to share some experiences about conferences! I love conferences and look forward to the opportunities to travel around the country to enjoy some time with other ADHD coaches and entrepreneurs, increase awareness of ADHD challenges, and finally meet some of my long distance clients face-to-face. It’s sort of like the social season of 19th century London, when the movers and shakers gather together in the city for debutante balls, elaborate dinners and spectacular galas. They can be both exhilarating and exhausting.

Paul made an appointment with me and arrived with a concern: “My wife keeps telling me I have ADHD because I am always misplacing things, forgetting what she says, and running late - even to work. But I have never been hyperactive, so can she still be right?” A week later, I met Jennifer upset with what her doctor had told her. “He said I have ADHD, but I know I don’t! I am very low energy, and my biggest problem is procrastination. I have ADD, not ADHD.”

Having ADHD can be frustrating. Merely struggling with compensating for the challenges so they don’t interfere with daily functioning and learning new ways to do things can be taxing. There is a constant internal battle of symptom and strategy waging inside yourself when you are coping with ADHD. In fact, a lot about ADHD is exhausting, however, putting up with or hearing from people who misunderstand or have misconceptions about ADHD has to top the list. Recently I was on a social chat forum online when the question was asked:

Mom, can I have the keys to go meet Cheryl at the mall?” “Dad, I just need the car for about an hour so I can take my friends to get some ice-cream.” “Mom, it’s so hot out! Can I just drive to the pool?” Not only do adults often drive more in the summer, particularly on highways while on vacation, but teens who are no longer confined to the school setting often drive more as well. If you are an adult with ADHD or have a teen diagnosed with ADD, extra caution may be needed.

Have you ever sat in front of the computer screen or pad of paper, wishing the words to magically come forth from your fingertips so you could finally meet your deadline? Do you hope that you won’t have to go through the chaos and stress of it being late or not completed at all? Yet no matter how long you sit there, or stare out the window, or surf the internet or hit your head on the desk…nothing happens. It’s not that you aren’t motivated or that it’s not important to you, but literally it’s like you have no idea of where to start or what words to use…you’re blank.

Ahh Valentine’s Day. A whole day traditionally devoted to celebrating love. And as it is quickly approaching, my thoughts turn to relationships, all sorts of different ADHD relationships, and how ADHD can be a test for even the strongest connections. When I work with adults, often the focus of our coaching sessions turns to a request for the best ways to handle conflicts with partners. I often hear these conce s: “I'm tired of always being late. No matter what I do, I can’t seem to get there on time. I feel awful and he gets so disappointed and angry with me.”

It’s that time of the year again…the 90 plus days that are the bane of existence for most adults with ADHD. Yes, I’m talking about tax season - when all of our best intentions from the year before can either feel like our saving grace or plunge us into weeks of despair. For whatever reason, taxes seem to combine all of the struggles of ADHD into one fell swoop. Last year, I shared the common experience of “a week with adult ADHD” to show how even the best of intentions can lead to chaos, putting out fires, procrastination and barely making deadlines.

“Medication levels the neurobiological playing field.”rn~ Biederman, J., & Spencer, T. (2002) After receiving a diagnosis of ADHD, the most commonly asked questions people have are around ADHD medications. Despite the fact that we have been using the same psycho stimulants to treat ADHD for over 60 years, and have studied them over and over again for effectiveness, short term and long term side effects and contraindications, doubt remains.

It’s summertime! Time for roadtrips and school vacation – which means more driving for teens and adults with ADHD. The symptoms of ADHD – especially the combination of impulsivity, distractibility, and inattention – lend themselves to greater risk of accidents, tickets and errors in driving (view our blog on ADHD and Driving – Risks and Strategies). So before you pack up the car or hand your keys over to your teenager, check the tips below to improve the safety for drivers with ADHD:

For people with ADHD, a familiar strategy to get things done is to be very clear about their goals, break them down into smaller pieces, and complete those smaller pieces in order to carry out the goal. Weekly we plan for what needs to be accomplished. Daily we check and check off our to do lists for what we accomplish and breathe a sigh of relief when we can look back and see that indeed we have moved forward and made progress. Completing these steps helps create the structure and organization that minimizes the common challenges of disorganization, distraction, procrastination, etc.

Did you know that the answer to your productivity depends on the first 15 minutes of your day? Physically we know having breakfast in the morning is important to getting the right fuel to sustain our energy and metabolism throughout the day. What we may not realize is that fueling our brain with what it needs to sustain focus and productivity is equally as important.

"I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work." ~ Thomas Alva Edison

ADHD affects conservatively about 5-8% of the world’s population. With the world’s population being around 7 billion…that’s a lot of people struggling with inattention, impulsivity or distractibility! Since math has never been my best academic subject, comprehending such a number has always been a bit hard for me. I guess it means that if I’m sitting in a room of 30 people, at least two or three of those people have a creative, overly active, easily distractible brain just like mine.

Bullying has become one of the most prominent social issues of our time. Bullying someone with ADHD seems to be even more widespread due to their still developing social skills and increased possibility they will impulsivity react. A bully, by definition, is a person who is habitually cruel or overbearing in the attempt to intimidate someone else and try to force him or her to do what they want.

As a consumer do you prefer to buy (purchase, acquire, invest, etc.) or to be sold? Most people prefer to make the self-determined decision to make a purchase and usually equate the concept of “being sold” to the category of being tricked, coerced, bamboozled or “forced to buy against their better judgment”.

One of the most effective management strategies for minimizing the challenges and symptoms of ADHD is medication. This might not be the most popular statement I have ever made, but research over and over again has shown that ADHD medications can “level the playing field” for adults with ADHD. Medications can be effective in helping adults with ADHD increase their focus on less interesting tasks, reduce impulsivity of actions and words and calm inner restlessness.

One of my passions is coaching people with ADHD who know they want to experience more satisfaction and success in their lives, but are unsure as to what actions will best support this. I love being able to help them discover new ways of managing their ADHD and creating new strategies that maximize their strengths and minimize their challenges. Through the years I have discovered that a large number of entrepreneurs struggle with ADHD which creates a unique challenge.

A few months ago, I wrote about “tipping points:”

The impact on siblings of children with ADHD is not often talked about, yet it is an important discussion to have in order to create healthy and functioning families. Studies show that siblings of children with ADHD experience the same disruption, chaos, unpredictability and exhaustion as their parents. At times, they may even feel victimized, unprotected and powerless, particularly when faced with expectations to “take care” of their siblings. A healthy family considers everyone’s needs.

People with ADHD are often eager to explore all the possibilities of better managing their ADHD challenges. Even though studies show that medication is up to 70-80% effective in reducing the core symptoms of ADHD (inattention, impulsivity and distractibility), there is no “magic pill” that alleviates all the struggles or cures ADHD. The impact of ADHD is 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and most ADHD medications wear off within 4-12 hours. That leaves many hours in the day that often require alte ative ways of coping with and managing ADHD symptoms.

Incredible as it sounds, I still am amazed at how often I hear people say “I don’t believe in ADHD.” You probably have heard it too. And if you are like me, the moment those words come out of their mouth, every hair raises on the back of your neck, the fire starts to chu in the pit of your stomach and your mind feels like it is going to explode. No matter how many times it happens, no matter how many times I hear the words “I don’t believe in ADHD” I am dumbfounded as to how it is even possible to live on this planet and doubt the reality of ADHD.

Whether you are just starting out or you have been an entrepreneur for a few years, wherever you are in your career, ensuring you have the right mindset is essential for your success. It is said that 80% of the reasons holding us back from being successful are inside ourselves and only 20% are on the outside – so we must always start by looking at ourselves. Don’t let yourself be your worst enemy. So how can we ensure we have a mindset geared for success…there are a few qualities we need to work on to be geared for success.

Summer movie blockbusters are upon us and local theaters are showcasing another season of superhero action flicks. Raising two sons, I have watched my share of superhero movies - from Star Wars to Spiderman - and confess that I know quite a bit about superheroes – the struggles that led them to use their talents and gifts to fight for good and prevent evil. I am intrigued by these stories and characters because when you look closer, it seems that beneath the cape or the mask, these remarkable heroes are really ADHD adults in disguise.

“Starting your own business is like riding a roller coaster. There are highs and lows and every turn you take is another twist. The lows are really low, but the highs can be really high. You have to be strong, keep your stomach tight, and ride along with the roller coaster that you started.” ~ Lindsay Manseau

ADHD runs in families. It is a genetic disorder and a family affair. If you are an adult with ADHD, it is highly likely that another relative of yours will have ADHD. For many adults this other someone is a grandchild. With the increased awareness and visibility of ADHD, the number of grandparents who are conce ed about their grandchild with possible ADHD is becoming more and more common. Often these grandparents did not have the resources or access to information about ADHD when their own child was young.

As a productivity and time management coach, I often hear “I don’t have the time to work on time management, it just takes too much darn time!” This is true if you choose a complex system such as Getting Things Done, the Franklin Covey system, and others, which require you to learn the system, then “clear the decks” to start implementing it.

I am a huge fan of finding ways to improve and create a fulfilling lifestyle, delving into book after book for many years. I wasn’t only interested in new things that you could do, but also curious why some individuals seem to effortlessly have what they want while others struggle day in and out. What keeps coming up, in many different ways, is how our exte al world is actually a reflection of our internal world. What does your world look like?

Many people try to generate leads and sales via Google AdWords and fail. But a great many others are very successful.

Search engine optimization is an endeavor that should be uppermost in the minds of any serious blogger or webmaster. Good search engine optimization is a daily application, that if applied at every instance of opportunity will return an increase of traffic and a decrease of page ranking for your site or blog. A decrease in page ranking is a good thing, because the lower your page rank the more relevant you are, according to the search engines. Let me say right from the onset

Get your hands in the air…The Weekend is Here!! If you don’t know how much I LOVE weekends then you don’t know me…AT ALL. Weekends are my time to recharge the batteries, annoy my the family and get intimate with my creative side. Now, I typically don’t recommend working on the weekends. That’s a major no-no. But, sometimes the “itch” to do something work related can’t be ignored. Before the end of the day, you just gotta scratch it. And scratch it I do, however, my work ethic on the weekend is wildly different than that of the work week.

Most would think that with the advent of technology, all the new gadgets and devices, we would drastically free up tons of time! Our productivity may certainly have increased but managing time is still the elusive goal. I doubt there are many people who can claim that they don’t know what it feels like to be utterly stressed out or so overwhelmed you can`t make sense of anything – all due to a lack of time.r

Sometimes it’s hard to work efficiently when distractions like endless email clutter, chats and conversations, or funny YouTube videos get in the way: we cannot concentrate, we forget the important, getting stuck in what clearly isn’t. Our self-control alone is often not enough to break cyberloafing habits or prioritize our communications wisely, so that’s why it might be worth taking a look at special productivity tools. It’s obviously much easier to quit scrolling t

If you let the stockpile of your commitments run amuck, it creates ambient anxiety and unnecessary stress. You’ll let that happen if you’re using your psyche instead of a system to keep track of those “open loops.” Managing a complete, current, and objective inventory of your agreements, in a seamless and leak proof container (not your mind), is the only way out. You must be able to renegotiate those agreements with yourself, almost moment to moment, so they’re not inordinate

Sometimes it is best not to think. Thinking is great, necessary and a basic function. God knows some people need to try it more often. However, there is a time not to think, but rather to act. Thinking can… * anticipate obstacles * prioritize actions * solve some problems in advance * help us navigate life well * and about a billion other things.

Do you hover over your spouse while they’re doing housework or completing other important tasks around the house? Do you take more than your share of responsibility for things in your ADHD relationship? Do you find it is just easier to get things done if you micro-manage your partner’s schedule or better yet, do it yourself? Have you tried nagging, pleading even anger to try and motivate your partner to get things done. If so, you may be a helicopter partner!

“The most important relationship you will ever have is the one you have with yourself.” Author unknow Each year, Valentine’s Day seems to draw attention to the notion that love is indeed a mystery. For some, it is a day looked forward to eagerly as they await their chance to acknowledge or be acknowledged by those they love. However, for many people with ADHD, their own inner struggle with poor self-worth, lack of self-acceptance and low self-esteem, limits their full appreciation of the abundant love from those around them and for themselves.

It's easy to let your weekends slip on by without accomplishing a single task. Sure, laying out by the pool all day or watching movie marathons are both appealing options. However, think about how you'll feel on Sunday night when not one chore was completed.

When it comes to project management, especially with a small team, producing results that pack a punch in a short period of time is non-negotiable. The stakes and stress levels are higher, and team morale plays a vital role in crossing the finish line. In our world, there is no difference between running a good race and running a good project— warmup, sprint, cool down. I'm not talking about the revolutionary 4 hour work week, 8 minute abs or 8 minute buns (unless you've fi

Building a qualities driven association includes substantially more than slapping a couple of cutout words onto a page: it's tied in with uncovering the convictions that issue to your group and placing them into movement.

Overwhelmedr Moving from ‘Overwhelm’ to Satisfaction I found myself in overwhelm once, when I had a legal problem I knew nothing about, a friend coming to stay for a week, a deadline with a proposal for a company I had never worked for before, and a social event to attend that evening and had not picked up my dress from the dry cleaners.

So a relatively easy way to stand out is to be more productive and calmer than everyone else during this period.

Do you have a huge challenge coping with the incoming paperwork? (Whatever happened to the paperless office?) Paperwork lands on your desk and somehow finds its way into your in-tray.

It sometimes feels like some people just have a gift for enjoying the holidays that the vast majority of people don’t have. Many of us feel like we’ll never be able to get there, and they just are lucky souls… but they aren’t.

In most business organizations, improved results can mean an increase in profits, improvements in the quality of product or service offerings, a better track record for workplace safety, increased customer satisfaction, and

Our days grow longer and the work loads grow heavier putting increasing pressure on each of us to increase our personal productivity. There seems to be no end in sight to the seemingly daily challenges we face that test our work productivity. Looking for productivity improvement in any area to help keep up with ever growing work demands requires examining our own use of time. The problem in fact that most of us are facing is more in the way we schedule our work loads than it

You want to make the right decision. We all do. But every time you get close to making a decision, doubt creeps into your head and you start to look for more information. And then a little more. There is truly no end to the research and information gathering you can do. This is what I refer to as "Analysis Paralysis."

The merits and demerits of a newspaper are many. In the first place, they give you latest updates from every corner of the globe. Hence it is possible for people to delve into world news from Africa sitting in a remote Indian village while up to date India news reaches any corner of the globe within a span of 24 hours. Business houses have been using newspapers as a customized medium for ages now. People read newspapers to keep themselves abreast with all the latest news taki

According to Currie, productivity is defined as "the quantitative relationship among the resources we use and what we produce" Beeching and Smith added: "Volume of production is obtained in a given time period related the total of indirect and direct efforts expended on its production." Productivity This term is different from the production. While productivity refers to the ratio of the output to the input, production otherwise refers to increasing production during a give

So many folks had dreamt of working independently from home without having to jump busses and without having to face traffic, the privilege of working at your timing with no boss ordering you around. rnThis is indeed is a desired state. But with the outbreak of the deadly COVID19 pandemic which has resulted in a lockdown, the reality is not so desirable. So many people have become unproductive as a result of the lockdown.rnWorking remotely requires some skill set to enable on

Are you driven in life to achieve and excel? Or do you simply like the idea of being driven and excelling, but to lazy and unfocused to take any real action. Their are habits that separate the winners from the losers and it is best to start adopting some winning strategies if your ever going to achieve the success, freedom and happiness your heart desires. I had always viewed myself as driven, but unfocused (different from being lazy). What I mean is I knew what I wanted but

One of the common threads I see with many business owners and executives is a desire to be constantly accessible to their clients and to people who call them. They feel if they are always available, it shows others that they put the customer first and are working hard. However, this creates a dilemma. If they are constantly available, how can the business leader truly get any work done? The business leader, when constantly interrupted by new phone calls and by people stopping

When you are working online increasing productivity should be an ongoing goal and one you have targeted from the very start. As an entrepreneur you will face many responsibilities and challenges that will test your skills and patience. By facing these challenges and meeting your responsibilities your skill sets will naturally evolve and your personal productivity will increase as well! Along the way one challenge you will continually face is how to maintain and increase your

What are the advantages of working with an HR staffing company rather than hiring new employees? First and foremost it saves companies money. Rather than risking a full year's salary on new employees, you only pay for the labor you receive. Even if you hire part time workers on your own, you will still save more by hiring a human resource staffing firm. You do not have to pay extra for employee benefits or insurance. You can increase your workload as your company grows. You a

It will be right to say that major goal of every business is to achieve the popularity and profit. To achieve these two business parameters is quite difficult especially in today's competitive world.

Office on the Go Do you spend a lot of time in your car? Nothing is more frustrating than being on the road and not having what you need when you need it. Create a system for organizing your paper and supplies while on the road, this will save you a lot of time and aggravation. Create a portable office center for your car. You want something that you can have next to you on the passenger’s side, but that is easily movable to another part of your car when you have passengers traveling with you. You can either purchase a car organizer or you can create your own system.

I think my dentist is on to me. Over the past year I have noticed an increase in their efforts to remind me of my appointments. In the good old days I would get a postcard two weeks before the appointment reminding me of the day and time. I really appreciated this as most of my dentist appointments were made six months out when I actually had no idea of what I would be doing at that time. Next came the reminder phone calls about two days before. More recently this has progressed to also include several email messages and a text that asks me to hit reply to confirm I will be there.

Have you ever see the Paul Newman movie Cool Hand Luke? There are a number of scenes where the Sheriff tells Paul Newman, the prisoner who keeps escaping, that he has to get his head straight, so he will stop escaping. I made this connection, as tenuous as it may be with almost all of my clients. I don’t have any that continually try to escape from jail, that I know, but the connection is there nonetheless. In every seminar that I have ever given, this topic of getting peopl

It’s been three centuries and a decision still has not been reached! Being part of the ADHD tribe we know that making decisions can be challenging, however taking over three hundred years to decide an answer makes our prioritization nature-or-nurturechallenges look pretty minor in comparison. The ongoing debate I’m referring to?

This sounds a little strange but having the right people doing the right jobs can have a powerful impact on your bottom line and how effective you and your organization is in getting the job done.

My favorite radio stations are playing carols, greeting cards are arriving in my mailbox and more and more houses are twinkling as I drive home at night. It’s official – the holidays are here. I’ve been thinking about the holidays and how to write a blog about best tips to survive and enjoy them if you or a loved one has ADHD. Then I started reminiscing about past seasons with my children and decided to go a different route. To celebrate the joys that ADHD can bring this time of year:

Summertime is just around the corner, and Lynn is wondering what to do about her son’s ADHD meds. “He really needs them for school, and the medication has calmed him down a lot, but some people have told me they take their kids off medication in the summer. I‘m not sure what to do!”

Marketing on the internet can be a very fast pace environment with constant change and challenges. Working online from home can even add a few additional distractions you would not normally encounter in a 'normal' work environment. The phone ringing off the hook, kids playing and the neighbor at the door make it tough to maintain focus. With all that said it is easy to understand how important solitude can be for online entrepreneurs. However finding peace and tranquility can

COST When people compare the cost of backup solutions they often make the mistake of just looking at the monthly fees involved with data backup services. There is often a failure to understand the accumulation of costs related to tape backup of which there are many hidden costs that aren’t usually considered.

Which is more important to help manage your symptoms of ADD…exercise, diet or sleep? Ideally we are fueling our bodies with nutritious food, moving our bodies with regular exercise and getting the consistent sleep we need to feel rested, alert and focused to decrease our symptoms of ADD. But reality is…we are missing at least one, if not all of these essential management strategies. If you could focus on one key strategy to make the biggest difference in experiencing relief of your symptoms of ADD, which would it be?

Recently I’ve noticed that being “happy” or striving for “happiness” is a major topic of many conversations. We seem to live in a world where we are inundated by information about being happy. Pursuing it could literally be a full time job! Being someone who has struggled with depression, it has made me wonder what would happen if we were happy all the time, whether unhappiness has a purpose, and if happiness is really the point. So what would happen if we were happy all the time?

Every time you say yes, you are also saying no. Every time you say no, you are also saying yes. Many people find it challenging to say no… to their loved ones, to their boss, to their own many desires. If a request is made of them or a project shows up, they feel obligated to accept it, regardless of what else is on their plate. Sometimes they greatly dislike this task or obligation that has shown up and they do not truly want to do it. At other times, they might want to do

Did you know that color has a quick and powerful impact on the choices you make every day? According to six different research studies in the Journal of Science the color red makes you more detail-oriented while the color blue inspires you to be more creative.

The fact that you are here is a good start. The fact that you are here indicates that there is a search on, from you, to explore and find a way to better yourself and to get better results. My position in this area has always been a two-pronged approach, to start with. Get Control of Your Time, and then make the best use of that time. Getting control of your time deals with proper Time Management (T.M.). Without a good handle on managing your time, increasing your productiv

When your child is a college bound senior, you want him to be prepared so when he enters college, he is part of the 50% that eventually graduates with a degree. You’ve spent years helping him with study skills, taught him right from wrong, and worked tirelessly to mold him into a capable, academic young adult. They are just about at the finish line…preparing to graduate from high school and go off to college…your job is just about done!

The presence of leadership and motivation in the workplace leads to a major increase in productivity of your workers. At any given time, workers aren’t giving 100% of what they’re capable of.

Though good natural leaders can be hard to come by, training is available to help develop the traits present in those in leadership positions. The presence of someone who knows not only what

Just as there are many different ways that ADHD shows up in our lives, there are also many different ways to manage and succeed with ADHD.

There will be presentations from some of the top ADHD experts and professionals from our community, who will teach you more about each technique and how to make it work for you.

It’s been a few weeks since the Succeed with ADHD Telesummit and my mind has finally quieted. All those tips and strategies, plus the energy and excitement of the listeners and speakers, had my brain fired up. I wanted to implement everything at once and make changes in my life right away! All those great ideas buzzing in my head, all the ‘I have to do that’, created such noise that I didn’t know where to start.

Unfortunately, many people with ADHD or ADD are incorrectly thought to be unmotivated or to somehow lack the “right stuff” in order to enjoy a successful, satisfying and purposeful life. This misperception baffles me as it is so far from the truth for most persons I know who live with the challenges of ADHD.

- Have you ever had to go a day or more without your prescription medication? - Do you know the physical discomfort and anxiousness of waiting to get the medication reordered? - Have you spent hours on the phone with the doctor’s office, insurance company or pharmacy waiting for your ADHD medications to be filled? If so, you, like me, have been trapped in the medication maze.

Here at Coaching for ADHD I love getting emails from you! Especially when you ask questions and want more understanding or clarification about something ADHD related. Recently I received an email from a father asking a question about his son’s behavior. He wanted to know if it was “normal” for someone with ADHD to be able to focus on some things and not be able to focus on other things. Great question, right? Isn’t ADHD an attention deficit issue? How can an ADHD child spend hours building towers on Minecraft, but can only attend to drawing a picture for five minutes?

Did you know that the answer to your productivity depends on the first 15 minutes of your day?

The past couple of months have been doozies for me.

A client of mine recently said to me “I have to work on my time management, but I never get to it!” Does this sound familiar? Problems with time management seem to lie at the heart of the difficulties faced by many adults with ADHD and it is perhaps one of the least appreciated of the challenges many experience. Challenges with time for people with ADHD can include everything from not being able to accurately judge or estimate how long something will take to complete, to a lack of feeling of time passing, to having difficulty remembering the months of the year in order.

OEMs and BPOs – these are just some of the acronyms closely related to tech support services. OEM is short for Original Equipment Manufacturer which refers to companies that repackage and resell products or components under the company’s name and branding, whilst BPO stands for Business Process Outsourcing which is a practice of contracting a third-party to perform specialized functions in behalf of their clients. These two are both dealing with the modern day approach of

Life with ADHD is a 24-hour, seven-day-a-week-adventure!! If you or someone you love has been diagnosed with ADHD, then you know how challenging it can be at times. Unfortunately, most of our focus is on the “negative aspects and problems” of ADHD and rarely are the strengths or positive qualities of ADHD appreciated or celebrated!!

Yes it's true that motivation plays a huge role in being productive but it finds its roots in your confidence! Being self confident is what actually motivates you to take a particular action that can contribute to you increasing productivity in any field! Lacking confidence in yourself or your expectations typically keeps you from even taking any action! The shame of it is that any experience gained will only contribute to your expertise which of course results in being all t

“When you take a small purposeful step each day, great things can happen.” Every January I get excited to come up with goals for the New Year. I’m a good goal setter. I see it as a way to challenge myself and keep things interesting. A bit like playing a game and figuring out which hoops I need to jump through to get to the prize. Sometimes I stick to these new resolutions…too often I don’t. I always have the best intentions, but I confess I haven’t always gone past this initial phase into taking the steps needed for success.

- “ADHD medications aren’t natural.” - “I only want to use natural ways to manage my ADHD symptoms.” - “I don’t want to put anything unnatural into my body.” These are just some of the familiar comments I hear during or following one of my presentations about ADHD medications. In our world where more and more things come out of a bag or a factory, it makes sense that we are trying to balance this with as much “natural” in our lives as possible.

For many new coaches, the focus is on getting coaching experience…period. An option emerging coaches often take is to agree to coach clients without charging for their services. This is what we call pro bono coaching. However, having only or too many pro bono clients will not help us with our own financial bottom line and without being able to earn a living we will not be able to keep doing what we love…coaching. By considering ahead of time how serving pro bono clients can help both you and the client, you can create a win-win situation. Let me tell you how:

Recently, many of you in my ADHD tribe were with me when I rushed to my son’s side as he recovered from a very serious car crash. For 10 days I alte ated between sitting next to his hospital bed holding his restrained hands, watching as fluid dripped into his body and slept in his hospital room in the ICU so when he woke I could reassure his confused mind that he was safe. During that time I realized the blessing of each of you who reached out to me, sending prayers of support, messages of comfort, likes and thumbs up on my Facebook posts, texts and emails with positive thoughts.

Do I have ADHD? Does my child have ADHD? Simple words, but the answers to these questions can be life changing for people and/or parents who are unsure as to whether or not they or their child have attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).

The reason, goal or motivation that will be the answer to them experiencing a fulfilling and satisfying life.

We often get questions about personal work areas: “What is the best way to organize a desk space, bookshelves, and my whole office? What special gadgets or tools can help me organize the work most efficiently? How often should I clean and organize it – assuming that it doesn’t stay neat as soon as it’s cleaned?” I will share my thoughts about gear and workspace logistics, but keep in mind that in order to understand how it all fits together and to make this work, you should

Albert Einstein once said…”Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.” Sound familiar? For instance, have you been trying the same strategies to get out the door on time, but constantly arrive late? Are you struggling to organize your day at work or home only to lose (errr…forget) important pieces of the puzzle? Do you find yourself losing your temper with your children, spouse or other important people in your life and end the day feeling frustrated? And at the end of it all, do you feel just a little bit like you are going crazy?

This past month I made a big mistake. During a routine manicure, I impulsively had the technician apply acrylic nails. You know, those long unbreakable nails that seem so elegant on someone else? Well, ever since, it’s like I have been typing on stilts. It’s amazing how an additional ½ inch at the end of your fingers can throw off everything from typing, to cleaning, to getting dressed and to making it impossible to play the new ukulele I bought in December.

Reading book on the bed or on the seat is my traditional custom. I love sitting in the shine and enjoy a book with a cup of tea on the hand. This is really a pleasing thing. But sometimes I will also meet with some difficulties while reading, such as: nn1)Read book far into the night when needed---- sleepy; n2)After a meal, especially a rich meal and I am engorged ---- sleepy; n3)Working or using computer for a long time , for example, 3 hours, and I am tired --- sleepy; n4)W

Considering the economic condition today, keeping a job can be a real struggle. You really need to be outstanding otherwise your chance of being laid off is high.

Managing the flood of email messages that most of us need to interact with on a daily basis is a growing challenge. No one’s volume is diminishing. That “beast is out of the barn,” and we’re not going to be able to shove it back in! So, getting a grip on it with a good systematic approach is critical for staying sane. If you are in the small minority of people currently able to maintain less than a screen full of email most of the time (because your volume is low and/or you

Ok, I’ll admit it…I don’t relax very well.relax In fact the thought of not “doing” something is a bit terrifying to me. If I had to use a metaphor to describe myself, I would say I am like that big pink Energizer Bunny. It is the perfect example of how I go through life and a key ingredient to many of my successes. Like the energizer bunny, some part of my body is always moving and my mind is constantly “on”. I’ll admit that people have jokingly asked me where they could find my “off” switch. Like the Energizer Bunny, I keep “going and going” in order to reach my goals.

If you haven't moved homes before, ask someone who has and they would tell the how stressful and messy things turn out to be.

“The second half of a man's life is made up of nothing but the habits he has acquired during the first half.” Feodor Dostoevski It is a well-established truth that the habits which we pick up unknowingly gradually grow upon us and may even dominate our lives. No wonder many communities believe in inculcating the best of habits in children from a young age. Whether it is brushing your teeth twice a day or being polite, human behavior is largely controlled by habit and not by choice. However, we also have habits, ways of doing things we not even really aware of, they are so automatic.

Life is constantly changing. A reality which can be difficult for people with ADHD who often struggle with making changes, especially when they are unexpected.

We can all be more productive, as individuals and organizations. There is always value that can be added with only the resources at hand. But what increases productivity? Not more resources, as a rule. More money that produces the same result per dollar spent is no improvement.

First of all, they reduce the impact of vibrations and are also especially helpful in absorbing and insulating against the noise that is caused by appliances or machines. Fo

Are you the partner in an ADHD relationship always dashing, darting, taking risks and soaring while your partner is more steady, balanced and unswerving? If so, your ADHD relationship maybe that of a kite and kite holder. Let me explain, several years ago I was focused on expanding my ADHD coaching business.
