Summary

Today we talk about sticking with ONE idea at a time and seeing it through to completion. Our brains love novelty and hate boredom, but if we want to live up to our potential, we need to stick with something long enough to ACCOMPLISH it.

Welcome to the I Have ADHD podcast, where it's all about education, encouragement, and coaching for adults with ADHD.

0:14.0

I'm your host, Kristen Carter, and I have ADHD.

0:18.0

Let's chat about the frustrations, humor, and challenges of adulting relationships, working, and achieving with this neurodevelopmental disorder.

0:27.0

I'll help you understand your unique brain, unlock your potential, and move from point A to point B.

Hey, what's up? This is Kristen Carter, and you are listening to the I Have ADHD podcast episode number 62.

I am medicated. I am caffeinated, and I am ready to roll.

0:51.0

Let's go. It is a gorgeous day in Pennsylvania. The sun is shining. The birds are chirping. There's like zero humidity.

1:00.0

It is nice and warm, and I am here recording a podcast for you. Love it. It's going to be a short episode, but it's really important.

1:10.0

I'm going to make an analogy that I think is going to be incredibly helpful as it pertains to ideas and constraint, and sticking to one thing at a time, seeing it through to the end, and fulfilling your God-given potential.

1:28.0

Really looking forward to this episode today.

1:31.0

First, I want to let you know that if you're listening in real time, today is Tuesday, June 30th. Today is the last day to join focused for July.

1:41.0

If you've tried other ADHD programs, and they haven't worked for you, I want you to know that focused is different.

1:49.0

I don't spend a lot of time telling you what to do, and giving you strategies. I rarely coach on actions, because you already know what to do.

1:59.0

That's the thing with ADHD. We know what to do. We just don't do it. The last thing you need from me is one more strategy.

2:08.0

Instead, we dig into why you don't do the things that you want to do, and how your thoughts are producing your results.

2:16.0

I teach you how to manage your mind, and create the life that you want to live.

2:22.0

So in today's episode, it's a perfect example of the work that we do in focused. I'm going to break down a huge problem, very common problem that all of us ADHD or struggle with, and I'm going to give you a different way to think about it.

2:34.0

And this different way of thinking about it will change your life, and this is how we approach everything in the focused program.

2:42.0

Whether it's relationships or time management or organization, it's not about a gimmick or strategy or some magical action that you need to take.

2:51.0

It all comes down to clearing the clutter in your mind, and intentionally thinking in a way that gives you positive results.

3:00.0

So my friend, if you have ADHD or you suspect you have ADHD and you want help creating a life that you're proud of, join focused, you can go to iHabADHD.com-focus for all the details my friend.
