And this is the big mistake that people with ADHD make.
We want to solve our problem and skill up at the same time.
We want to skill up to solve our problem.
We want to work on our problem and skill up.
You can't work on your problem.
I mean, you can, that's a terrible way to do it.
You should skill up outside of the problem, right?
So if I'm like preparing to play professional tennis,
The practice happens outside of the match.
In ADHD, you want to level up while you are solving the problem.
The leveling up is outside of the problem.
When I go into an instance and I try to take down a raid boss, if I wipe, the way to not wipe is to gear up outside of the raid boss.
But we get so hyper-focused on this particular thing.
We want to solve this thing.
We want to solve this thing.
We want to solve this thing.
We don't level up outside of it.
So if you look at things like what does therapy for ADHD actually entail, it involves leveling up.
It's kind of like training for a marathon, and then there's the marathon.
Everyone with ADHD, what they do is they just show up at the marathon.
