ADD is OK

by Brenda on October 28, 2008

We all have days when we feel bad about ourselves for one reason or another. Guess you noticed I had one yesterday. :)

But there are a lot of reasons to feel good about who we are – ADD and all. ADD is OK.

Here’s why:

    You are in very good company. A good portion of Hollywood, the NHL, and the people you read about in history books have/had Attention Deficit Disorder.
    You are a dreamer. Dreaming is OK; it’s good. Without dreamers, we wouldn’t have airplanes, rocket ships, or cell phones. If you’re a dreamer and a do-er, that’s great. If not, find yourself a do-er and go to town!
    You have a brilliant and creative mind that sees connections where others do not. That can lead to new discoveries, and that’s a good thing.
    You have a playful and childlike side that still sees the wonder in the ordinary and the fantastic in the everyday. Keep it up.
    You’ve got energy and ideas in abundance. Keep the flow going. It’s OK to abandon one project in search of a newer, more exciting one at times. Who knows what you’ll come up with?

Having ADD is OK. It’s who you are, and it’s who I am too. Nobody made a mistake when they made us.

“Figure out who you are, and then do it on purpose.” Dolly Parton

A untroubled old majority could be the award of a well-spent youth. As an alternative to its bringing sad and low prospects of decay, it would give in to defeat us hopes of eternal youth in a less ill globe

I’m not sure exactly why but this website is loading very slow for me. Is anyone else having this issue or is it a problem on my end? I’ll check back later and see if the problem still exists.

hi it is my first post on this blog and in the begining I would like to thank for the great information, which I found in this and all previous posts , it really helped me very much. I will definitely iclude this website on my rss reader Also, I would like to ask – don’t you mind if I will quate some information from your website because I am writing articles for the Associated Content, Ezine and other articles directories (this is my part time job)? It would really help me with some of mine articles. Of course, I will mention your website name or URL (not all articles directories allows URL’s , so I can’t 100% promise that you will get a direct backlink to your blog).

I’ve been surfing on-line greater than three hours today, but I by no means discovered any interesting article like yours. It’s beautiful value sufficient for me. Personally, if all site owners and bloggers made excellent content as you did, the net will be a lot more useful than ever before.
