Welcome to the transcriptions of the ADHD Audio Newsletter!
In May 2005, I began to use the power of the internet to share information with people about ADHD. I had people submit questions on my website, and then I would choose a ‘frequently asked question’, and answer it with an audio recording. I would then email out the answer to my subscribers.
Some people emailed me and said: “Thank you for the great information, but I learn better with written information. Can I get the transcripts of the audio newsletter?”
I answered: “Yes, when I get the time”.
Well, it has taken a long time - and I have started to use a very useful technique to get this done, called: Outsourcing! This is a great technique for ADHD Adults as well - i.e. getting someone else to do the work for you, so that you can get more done. So, now that I have my team together for transcribing, and my team for the blog, I will be getting this content out to you. I may even post the audios here for people. Hmm… there are lots of possibilities.
(as an aside - one of the possibilities is that I may podcast these audio newsletters - I am just learning how to do that - so watch for it soon)
So, I will gradually update this category on my blog so that my subscribers can get access to the transcriptions of the newsletter - and of course you can email the links of any page to your friends or family who may benefit from reading this information.
Enjoy, and please remember to post comments on anything that you find interesting, controversial, educational, offensive, or just leave a comment for any reason at all.
Enjoy!

p.s. when I speak about outsourcing for adults with ADHD - the most common exchange is money - i.e. I get someone to do my typing, and I pay them.
However, if you are in a position where you need to outsource something but don’t have the money for it - just get creative! Let’s say you hate doing your taxes or bookkeeping - you may be able to find someone who loves to do that. In exchange, you may be able to do something for them that you love doing, and they dislike - maybe helping with a spring cleaning, walking their dog, or gardening.
Be creative so that you can leverage others to help you to get done what you need to get done.
One of my mentors said: “Get people who like to play at what you work at”. For many of us, doing accounting is a lot of work. But for some, it is play. That’s why we get bookkeepers and accountants.
