Deep dives
Finding Meaningful Work
When determining what you want to do for the rest of your life, it is crucial that you find something you love doing and enjoy the process of. As an ADHDer, it's essential to embrace your areas of interest and do more of what you enjoy. Being an entrepreneur should not be solely driven by wanting time freedom or working from home, but rather by serving a specific audience and solving their problems. It's important to be willing to do the work badly at first and continue to improve over time. Self-trust and belief in your ability to figure things out are also key factors in pursuing meaningful work.
Giving Yourself Permission to Explore
Many ADHDers struggle to find their ideal work because they either haven't thought deeply about their strengths, values, and interests, or they feel embarrassed to admit what they really want to do. Taking the time to explore these aspects and being unapologetic about your true passions are crucial steps in finding your ideal work path. It is also important to let go of the narrative that you never follow through on anything. Recognize the things you do follow through on in your daily life and use that as evidence of your ability to commit and pursue what truly lights you up.
Optimizing for What Lights You Up
Regardless of your age, it is never too late to start optimizing your life for what brings you joy and fulfillment. Understanding your needs, values, and what truly matters to you is essential in pursuing meaningful work. Financial independence is not about luxury and riches but having enough resources to focus on what truly lights you up. Figure out what you loved doing as a child and connect the dots of the interests and passions that have stuck with you throughout your life. Give yourself permission to explore, be imperfect, and trust that you are moving in the right direction to create a career that aligns with who you truly are.
