Your future self is not impressed 😖 ADHD Impulsivity + Temporal Discounting

Send us a textTemporal discounting means that we discount things that will only happen in the future. Like, retirement or getting old and frail. So we make decisions that are better for us in the short term, and long term be damned! Now, not now is a term coined by Dr. Russel Barkley. Unlike temporal discounting, we ADHDers not only discount the future, we literally forget it's there because... it's not now. That's what we're untangling today and how to manage it.»»»»»...

Are you Manifesting? Or is it just "Magical Thinking"....

Send us a textMagical Thinking is assuming things will just happen or work out even in the absence of any evidence or plan. ADHDers do this a lot because planning, prioritizing and execution are executive function skills and that's not our strong suit. Many of us also mistake Magical Thinking for "Manifestation" - the process of bringing things into existence, but they are in fact, very different things.In this week's video, I share the key differences between magical thinking and...

Answer this BEFORE you set anymore goals

Send us a textThis year, in my ADHD coaching practice, I saw a pattern of ADHDers wanting more for themselves, but not seeing how they can get out of their own way. What became clear to me after seeing this same issue coming up over again and again, is that we’re not clear on what we want, so we default to what others want. We accept what comes to us, or chase what we think others want for us, because we haven’t articulated what our own priorities are (and it’s no surprise, becaus...
