As an ADD’er, I have grown a lot with learning to control what I say, controlling that verbally impulsiveness. In today’s age of technology, this impulsiveness must now be controlled on the Internet, specifically with email.
Whether it is a personal or work related email, we’ve all received the type of email that makes you want to respond back with fury and give someone a piece of your mind! Controlling that impulsiveness is very important on email. There is a lot of potential for an email to be misunderstood or misinterpreted.
As an ADD’er, I have adopted a strategy that allows me to respond and not regret what I have written. Here are a few tips I follow to manage this:
1) Keep cool, the understanding or intent of the message may not be understood
2) Create your response in a Word document first, to avoid sending something by accident. It also allows you to cool down and gather your thoughts.
3) Once you have formatted your response, save it and come back to it later. It may offer you a different perspective and allow you to respond more effectively.
Responding too quickly without thinking and maintaining control can create more issues, impact relationships and simply turn into an embarrassment.
