While ADD can be a challenge at times for people, there also is a silver lining to it. I really like ADD Coach Pete Quily’s Advantages of ADD, you can see it at http://www.addcoach4u.com/positivesofadd.html . Having discussed ADD with a number of people lately, it reminded me of the many positive ways ADD can impact people, here are a few of my favorites as seen on Pete’s site:
Adventurous
Always willing to help others
Being able to see the big picture
Can do many projects at once
Can make people feel they are heard
Can think quickly on feet
Confidence
Constantly evolving
Courageous
Creative
Good in a crisis
Dedicated
Eager to try new things
Energetic
Entrepreneurial
Good at multitasking
Good conversationalist
Great with kids
Humorous
Optimistic
Problem solver
Tenacious
Visionary
Hey, that’s a pretty good list. If I didn’t have ADD…..perhaps I wouldn’t possess these traits? There’s something to think about. A rather positive spin on ADD.
