Episode description

Everyone gets distracted!  fact of life, very few people are able to stay focused 100% and never have their minds wander.  But those who have ADHD find that they can be distracted multiple times by multiple things out there all around them and it takes literally nothing for it to occur.  We struggle because our minds can't focus enough on what we are looking at, working on, listening to and end up becoming involved in many things over the course of a day.  

I really think we are trying to find that next dopamine hit and that's what can cause us to be distracted!  No, this isn't always why but i'm sure it often can be the explanation when we become bored easily with what we are doing in the moment.. especially those with ADHD!
