You have so many amazing qualities to be successful in business.
40-60% of entrepreneurs are ADHD. As someone who has a very successful online small business, I’m testament to this.
Working with your ADHD rather than against it will lead to success.
Holding yourself to neurotypical standards will never work for you. Releasing yourself from that will lead you to successful paths.
Instead of swimming against the current, let’s find new ways to swim with it instead.
Let’s make this easier for you, not harder. Let’s change your approach entirely.
Aiming to be successul with neurotypical strategies and solutions leads to failure, disappointment and stress.
Too many ADHD business owners spend years and decades trying to act as if they’re neurotypical, rather than making the most of their ADHD.
Let me give you an example.
I worked with an ADHD entrepreneur who had a small design business.
We worked together on each area of their business in turn, making it easier for them.
One business issue was a long and convoluted sales process which required remembering, and note-taking.
This process just didn’t suit an ADHD person at all. Working memory is poor in ADHD people, and remaining consistent in making notes was a struggle.
We completely changed this process to remove the need to remember and make notes. We made it ADHD-friendly!
This new process based on outsource and automation worked like a dream!
How could we make your business more ADHD friendly?
You’re not broken. You just need to learn how to handle your ADHD better.
ADHD does bring challenges, for sure, but you’re perfectly OK. You can and will do this.
I’ve been very successful in business with over £15million in sales in my company.
Let’s learn about you and how you work best, and make changes to accommodate.
You struggle to stick at tasks and projects, leading to poor follow through.
Starting tasks, and being consistent, can be a genuine challenge. Time management is tough for you!
You have too many projects on the go, and this leads to overwhelm.
Over commitment, impulsive spending, quick decisions and switching from project to project are common for ADHD business owners and entrepreneurs.
Sitting there with a huge list, but not starting anything, causes stress.
Making decisions and prioritising are genuine issues for ADHD people. So, we’ll often have too many open and unfinished projects, while struggling to get started with anything.
Holding yourself to account on what will be most useful to your business is a struggle.
Sticking to any one task until it’s finished is a challenge for many ADHD people. As a result, you can end up with a huge amount on your plate, with none of it getting done.
You pick up and put down tasks, and you can’t remember where you are or what you were doing.
Working memory is poor within the ADHD brain. So, if you have too much on your plate and aren’t being organised, you might become agitated and find it takes longer than you’d like to get tasks finished.
You might have a huge list of ideas and tasks and projects which are started but not finished.
That list might be overwhelming since it’s long as your arm, leading to poor productivity.
You could have enormous resistance to starting some tasks, but you don’t know why?
Your resistance to some tasks is overwhelming, and it’s frustrating because deep down you want to do it.
Maybe you switch from task to task, idea to idea, believing – in impulsive excitement – this one will work.
Each time you do this, it’s another brick in your “wall of failure”.

But .. you’re starting to get anxious that you don’t know how to fix all of this.

I’m like you. I’ve tried hard with everything I’ve ever done, but ADHD means I’ve “failed” regularly.
We live in a neurotypical world, and judge ourselves by those standards.
And at times I’ve felt disappointed, guilty, responsible and overwhelmed by not living up to expectations.
It’s important to realise that emotions never lead to our maximum productivity.
Years of disappointment creates an additional burden by building resistance to even trying.
Ask yourself honestly – how much is the stress, resistance, guilt and disappointment holding you back? Do you even know?
Let’s remove the weight of disappointment from your back.
ADHD qualities lead to incredible creativity, resilience and passion.
These are skills and qualities that your business will benefit from hugely! They’re amazing strengths!
