“It rolled off my tongue so easily. I was in a conversation with someone and they made a pretty bold declaration and my immediate response was YET. Y-E-T. It may not be a reality now but it can be in the future. And if you want it to be in the future, you better start adding YET to the end of those declarations. Especially the ones that are focused on what you're currently lacking. I'm not pregnant. YET. I'm not making a million dollars. YET. I'm not married. YET. I'm not a good sleeper. YET. I'm not a good dancer. YET. I'm not feeling better. YET.”

I actually think it's a good thing to be bad when you're trying something new. YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BE. Do you expect to be Michael Jordan the first time that you pick up a basketball? 

But that's not the way our brains work. If we see that it's possible, our brains can't distinguish between what it's seen and reality. We feel the pain of the gap but today's episode is my attempt to give you a different perspective that will hopefully make you enjoy being a beginner. It's a state we should be in often!

When it's time to make a decision in your life, what is your filter? Mine is a mantra called "Choose the bigger life." I heard about it from Gretchen Rubin years ago. Even got a bracelet made with it as a reminder because I only want to be making choices that expand my life instead of constricting it. That pushes me towards growth instead of stagnation. It's time to ditch the default life and actively choose the bigger one instead.

We aren’t born knowing how to be awesome at everything. We have to spend our time learning. Self-care is no different. If you’re feeling like you’re doing self-care wrong, you aren’t!

There is so much in this world that we don't have control over. But our thoughts? We do. And one of my go-to mantras is: Love believes the best. It helps to remind me that I need to be generous with my assumptions. That I don't have all of the facts. That I need to wait until I get actual confirmation instead of letting my thoughts go wild. I hope this is helpful for you!

Routines aren't that great for the ADHD brain. You're going to need to switch it up way more than you think you should. And hey, that's okay! If something isn't working after three times, it's time to switch it up!

I've had a lot of jobs. And many people with ADHD also have had a lot of jobs. There are a few reasons for this but the main ones are needing complexity and novelty in our work. A typical job has hired you to do that ONE JOB but that can get boring. So what's the solution? Let's explore it.
