Magnets, Self-Regulation, and ADHD: What a Metaphor

ADHD can easily be thought of as a magnet. It's either attracted to something or repels something. In this context, we begin to understand the challenges of self-regulation. The magnet is a magnet; you can't change its forces. How do you work with it? ADHD is ADHD; you can’t change the biology. In this episode of Attention Talk Radio, Caroline Maguire (http://necoaching.com) and Jeff Copper (http://digcoaching.com) discuss using magnets as a metaphor to observe ADHD behavior and transition to just how one can use the concept of a magnet to work with it and not against it.
