Celebrate Your Talents
As an adult with ADHD, it is very easy to focus on your weaknesses and areas “to be worked on.” So much thought can be given to these areas that it’s easy to forget about your talents. Many adults with ADHD are humble to a fault and dismiss their talents because they come so easily. Naturally, they don’t feel they can be proud of these traits, or that they aren’t valuable. Nothing could be further from the truth. When you notice what you are good at, you can spend more time utilizing your strengths and less time worrying about your weaknesses.
Being in The Zone, being in The Flow is Being Charismatic
This week I delivered a half-day session on Charismatic Leadership to The Ella Foundation, established by Brian Chernett, created to inspire more leaders in the not for profit sector to be more effective and successful. Nearly 30 leaders from different registered charities participated in a way that was subtly different to leaders within the corporate sector. These men and women showed a real passionate intensity for their cause that was truly inspiring. Their minds were open and receptive to my techniques meaning that the exercises we did regarding energy were really advanced because their attitude to learning was untainted by cynicism.

In Pursuit of Happiness
Think of a time you’ve been completely lost in an activity. You find yourself so involved in what you are doing that you lose track of time and all outside worries. Forgetting time and external distractions as you immerse yourself in your work are two symptoms of a gripping phenomenon called “flow,” a term first named in 1990 by educator and psychologist Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi (pronounced Mee-high CHICK-sent-me-high-ee).

The Pursuit of Flow
Being "in the flow" is that enthralled state, when your level of skill matches the level of the challenge. You become so engrossed in what you do that you forget to eat. You escape time. We’ve all been there. It’s what athletes call “being in the zone”, what musicians refer to as “being in the groove”. The concept of flow is the brainchild of psychologist Mihali Csikszentmihalyi. This article provides 10 practical tips for achieving this coveted state.
