010 - ADHD & 'Thinking, Fast and Slow'

Understanding ADHD Through 'Thinking, Fast and Slow' In this episode of the ADHD Goals podcast, host Laurence Pratt delves into Daniel Kahneman's 'Thinking, Fast and Slow' to explore its relevance to the ADHD experience. The book's differentiation between System 1 and System 2 thinking processes illuminates the ADHD-related challenges of impulsivity, hyperactivity, focus, and decision-making biases such as hyperbolic discounting and confirmation bias. Laurence discusses how individuals with ADHD can leverage an understanding of these systems for better decision-making, self-regulation, and goal achievement by cultivating mindfulness and self-awareness. The episode emphasises the importance of recognising and navigating the cognitive dynamics of ADHD for improved life navigation.
