I love this article - I knew someone very closely who had “severe ADHD” quotes because in certain things - such as tracking - they were intensely focused and effective. The more time outside they spent , the better they seemed. They eventually found a position with the game commission that overall seemed to work well for them. They weren’t able to stay focused on nearly anything outside of nature, excluding things that brought them anxiety. However , this is anecdotal. They were before that able to run a semi successful cleaning business for rental properties, with the main issue being paperwork related. |

Oh, I feel this. I have ADHD and I can focus on ANYTHING, but I don't get to choose what to focus on. Some days, my body decides I get to focus on Jira - and then my Jira board gets ALL my attention. Some days, I learn a LOT about data governance or clearing out old emails.
The hardest part of ADHD is to STOP focusing on one thing so I can START focusing on the right thing.
