How big is your focal plain? | ADHD Information
What, mean some people ACTUALLY finish the projects they start??
Well, if you ask me that's just not normal!!

Hey, accidents happen!
Dr. Hollowell lists in Driven to Distraction something like 20 ADdHD symptoms.One of them is "many projects going at once, trouble following through".
Ignoring the latter half of that symptom, how many projects can you juggle at once?
i.e. How BIG is your focal plain?
I have the zillion or so but I finished ONE!!!
I used to do that whole start a heap of projects and finish none. Now I limit myself to short-term goals.
I bought a huge rack of paper for an easel and nailed it to my wall. I separate my goals by the week and set out things like bill paying, groceries and future purchases. I put a big check box next to each and am careful to limit myself to half a dozen or so. It really helps!
I wish I'd been able to finish that high school project, but I'd like to someday!

I have at least 50 projects and cant seem to stay focused long enough to
finish any.I don't think we have to finish them all.
That's what everyone else is around for.
