Proof - Unwrapping The Gift of ADD Works
Last week, I released a special report that I co-authored with Dr. Edward Hallowell, best selling author of Driven To Distraction, Delivered From Distraction and other top books.
We believe that ADD and ADHD have gifts within them, but they’re gifts which are hard to unwrap. We intend to change the paradigm of ADD out there - to help to improve the lives of those people touched by ADD and ADHD.
This week - we have released two interviews which can be listened to for free, and can be very helpful in helping you to understand the ’strength based’ approach to ADD and ADHD:
1) I interviewed Dr. Hallowell himself about his ADD and Dyslexia. He provided excellent insight into his own story and how ADD/ADHD and dyslexia can be positive or have gifts within them.
2) PROOF that unwrapping the gift of ADD works: I interviewed Jay Mandarino - who has ADD and Dyslexia. When he was in elementary school - the teachers told his parents to send him to a halfway house and to not expect him to be more than a gas attendant. He now has 13 companies that do more than $24 million per year. In addition - he is successful in many more ways… Listen here to get the whole story.
**One of the reasons that we wanted to include this interview, is because sometimes people feel that calling ADD is a gift is nice, but the day to day struggles are too hard… And ADD/ADHD doesn’t feel like a gift. This was described well by Dianne’s comment here.
Although ADD and ADHD can be a real struggle - finding the gifts within is the best way to go. We need to convince you of that, and then help you to get that message out to more people out there in the world.
These interviews and this information is part of the lead up to the ‘Unwrapping The Gift of ADD’ program that Dr. Edward Hallowell and I are co-hosting later this month.

When we were younger my twin brother suffered from ADD. It was a lot less well understood back then and he suffered for it.
He was always labeled as a trouble maker and that affected the way he thought of himself. While it’s obviously a struggle for you guys dealing with it now, take a bit of comfort from knowing it was harder in the past. At least you get understanding, my brother simply got a label which he ended taking on as his personality. He’s now in jail, but it’s not too late for this generation.
