Description

It took 40,000 client hours to write a book that offers real strategies for how people with ADHD can get more done.

Most adults with ADHD wish they were more productive. And consistent. And on time.

Most of the advice on living with ADHD involves some aspect of productivity. However, because people are complicated and life is varied, too often that advice falls flat. The ADHD Productivity Manual goes both deeper and wider and covers thirty-six areas that influence productivity for people with ADHD. Each of these chapters is short, action-oriented, and grounded in twenty-five years of clinical experience. And, because doing is better than reading, each chapter ends with thought-provoking questions to help you immediately apply new strategies.

The thirty-six chapters are broken into seven sections:

  • Why Does ADHD Make Productivity Harder? — Knowledge is power, but so is acceptance.
  • Set a Better Foundation - Life is hard enough, so make some things easier.
  • What Are You Working Towards? — Hint: a meaningful life that you can feel good in.
  • Set Up a Good Work Environment — So your brain doesn’t have to work as hard.
  • Sharpen Your Tools — How to not hate schedules, to do lists, and reminders.
  • Productivity is a Mental Game — Flex those motivation muscles even when you don’t want to.
  • The Social Side of Productivity — Play well with others, but also know when it isn’t your problem to solve.

This book will be devoured by adults with ADHD and anyone who treats, coaches, organizes, teaches, or loves them. Illustrations by Marcy Caldwell, PsyD add to the playful, compassionate tone and complement the many, many strategies.

Each chapter ends with thought-provoking questions to help you apply the lessons into your life. The book includes a downloadable PDF with all 128 unique questions spread out over 85 pages, so get ready to do some serious thinking. This book is all about making real changes and getting things done.

The ADHD Productivity Manual brings together the wisdom of twenty-five years of psychology practice, seven-hundred-fifty presenations and podcast interviews and ten years as a co-chair of one of the biggest ADHD conferences in the world.
