You are a uniquely wired human being with unlimited potential:
Here’s an excerpt from “Permission to Proceed,” pages 76-77
by David Giwerc, MCC, Founder and President, ADD Coach Academy
“If you have trillions of different ways to learn and understand ideas,
process environmental stimuli and handle the many other necessary
pieces of information you use to survive and thrive daily, then how can
you be expected to limit yourself to a few standardized and required
ways of learning and performing in the classroom, the workplace or
even the home? Here you are, born with an infinite set of processing
options, and the rest of the world says, ‘We will choose them for you,
and if they don’t work because that is not the way your brain works,
well, that is just too bad.” If you have been living your life based on
what others tell you are the ways you must learn, and those ways haven’t
been working for you, you may be apt to believe that you are incapable
of learning. From there, it’s a short mental trip to believing that you are
broken — a terrible, destructive belief that many of us with ADHD have
felt at some point in our lives. But it’s not true.”
“The standardized and required ways of learning, processing information
and performing may not work for you. But there are unique and individual methods
that will. For those of you with ADHD, your job is to discover the
options that naturally work for you, integrate them into your daily life
and inform everyone else that, from now on, you will dictate what ways
you learn, work and live best — not the other way around!
Understanding your unique brain wiring, and educating others in
your life about what works best for you, can help you facilitate home,
school and workplace environments that honor and serve individuals,
each as unique as you are.”
How does your ADHD unqiue brain wiring show up?
Are you giving your self permission to proceed with indentifying, embracing and
integrating your unique brian wiring into your life, RIGHT NOW?
We would love to hear from you!!!
