Not one of them is good and one of them is bad. None of them are good. None of them are bad. They just are. So what we need to do is we need to go, okay, this is how I am.

It's like, okay, you have ADD or ADHD. Cool. Let's work with it. Not blame it for why we're not where we want to be. Because you can work with it and use it for what it's used for.

So what I want you to do is if you think that you have ADD or ADHD, I want you to stop thinking of it as a deficit.

I'm like, are there any successful people with ADHD?

I want you to think of it as like, oh, it's just a trait and I can work with it and still succeed and create the life that I want. So stop thinking that it's something that can hold you back.
