The tickler for the latest ADDitude magazine article caught my eye: “When the System is Against You, Overcome ADD Obstacles at Work and at School.” Some of the best people I know have ADD. I often work with folks who have organizational problems as a result. This was information I wanted to have in my tool kit.
The article gives strategies for working through ADD, how to manage with and without medication, and highlights the hidden benefits of a limiting condition. Better still, this advice comes from five top executives who persevered despite being labeled as losers in school. I couldn’t stop reading the personal stories of David Neeleman, founder of JetBlue Airways; Paul Orfalea, founder of Kinko’s; Diane Swonk, economist and author; Alan M. Meckler, Chairman and CEO of Jupitermedia; and Charles Schwab, founder and chairman of Charles Schwab & Co. Each overcame their ADD obstacles to make a difference.
Very inspiring stuff! Read the entire article here:
