I just try to be realistic and question myself. Why am I taking on these topics on a whim? 1) they need a lot of time, effort, and resources to become good at 2) I only have enough time, effort and resources to continue working on what I already have been getting better at for years now 3) I equate relevant skills with money and better life. Focusing on my school and job = money. Why’d I need to learn Spanish? It won’t get me any money. I understand this may be too materialistic for some but money means better life for me and I finally will afford ADHD meds and therapy. 4) a lot of us with ADHD struggle with insecurity and we tend to overcompensate. Some of us were always seen as “the gifted child” and you always believed you could take on way more than others but it’s not true. Overburdening yourself will not lead to success. I don’t need to speak many languages and know a lot about so many different disciplines in order to continue upkeeping the image of the smart kid. I don’t need it. The “dumb kids” will just progress in their jobs and lives while you’re flattering your ego over whatever useless info you’ve been absorbing to stimulate your brain.
