The Courageous Entrepreneur Show

Managing ADHD and Entrepreneurship


Listen Later

There are a million things that need to be done as you grow and run a business. And since we entrepreneurs tend to share certain characteristics like a love of learning, a tendency to be early adopters of technology, and creative idea machines it can be easy to have a million projects in various stages of launching that never get anywhere.

And as the stress and frustration mount it can be easy to frantically try new things, throw new ideas and projects at the wall to make something stick when the answer might in fact be the opposite.

As a productivity coach and host of Crusher™TV, Alan Brown teaches productivity "brain hacks" to crazy-busy professionals and entrepreneurs. Alan is the #1 Best-Selling author of "Zen and the Art of Productivity: 27 Easy Ways to Have More Time, Earn More Money and Live Happier." A featured speaker in the U.S. and Europe, including a TEDx Talk, he uses his weekly online TV show, at CrusherTV.com, to help people live to their potential by "unleashing the power of their brains."

Listen in and hear Alan reveal:

  • The percentage of the population believed to be undiagnosed with ADHD
  • Why ADHD-ers engage in risky behaviors
  • Things we commonly tell ourselves when we struggle with ADHD
  • Things to reflect on if you're wondering if you may have ADHD

DISCLAIMER: Neither Alan nor I are doctors and we are not giving you medical advice or any specific advice for you or your situation. Consult a professional for a true diagnosis of ADHD / ADD. This episode is meant for general education.
