The Impulsive Thinker

André shares an experience where a mis-statement was made about him on a podcast.  He discussed how he would have responded to it in the past and how he handled it this time - properly and maturely!  He also shares his thoughts about how we cannot convince people who don't want to learn; spend your energy wisely on only those who do want to learn.  Remember, you can never outsmart a determined idiot!

Keith Gelhorn from ADDvocacy shares his ADHD journey and how and why he started ADDvocacy.org.  Knowing that many people ADHD won't spend money or don’t' have money to spend on coaching, Keith figured out that helping the client to get funding for support was the best way to help his client.  His hyperfocus to grow to help others is his ADHD strength.
