Ep 80: The Dangerous ADHD Mindset That's Sabotaging Your Success
Manage episode 471242219 series 3483932
In this transformative episode of our ADHD mindset series, I tackle the powerful impact of how we think about our ADHD. You'll discover why the phrase "I hate my ADHD" might be keeping you stuck and how to shift your thoughts without forcing toxic positivity.
đ Key Topics:
- Why I never thought about ADHD being "unfair" and what that perspective taught me
- How my clients transformed their relationship with ADHD through simple thought shifts
- The difference between toxic positivity and helpful neutrality
- Why focusing on what ADHD "takes from you" creates a cycle of powerlessness
- The balance of acknowledging challenges while reclaiming your agency
đŁď¸ Featured Quote: "I don't have to love my ADHD, but thinking it's unfair wasn't going to help. It would just make me feel stuck."
đĄ Strategy Breakdown:
- Notice your thoughts about ADHD through journaling or speaking them aloud
- Get curious about whether these thoughts are helping or hurting you
- Shift one thought at a time using "and" statements or neutral alternatives
- Replace "I hate the way my brain works" with "I have a brain"
- Move from "I'm terrible at time management" to "I'm learning how to manage my time"
đŻ Coming Up Next: Join us next week as we continue exploring ADHD-friendly strategies.
đ Key Takeaway: Somedays, ADHD feels really frustrating, but you're not stuck. Shifting your thoughts doesn't mean ignoring the hard parts. It means giving yourself the power to take action anyway.
đ Level Up: Practice one small thought shift today and share your experience in the comments.
