What is your life’s purpose? What is that “something” that fills you with abundant energy and joy?
.
Everyone has it, that “It” factor, that special quality that sets them apart from everyone else. It’s their purpose and doing it takes no excessive effort or exasperating force of will. It comes naturally, like a cool breeze on a hot summer’s day. It’s not about making money or meeting any requirements or doing something that you are “told”.

Most of a person’s life with ADHD is doing things that do not come naturally. It starts in school and just seems to continue forever. This typically happens because we live in a world setup for the non-ADDer and we are regularly following guidelines and rules created for people without ADHD. We are constantly trying to “fit in” and be different than we are wired to be. We are today’s left handers practically required to become right handers: Our left hand is all too often, in one way or another, being tied behind our backs. In a very real way the message we all too often receive is that as “we naturally are” is not “good enough” and is not the “right way” to be. Perhaps because of this, too many of us never discover our true purpose.

One of the ambitions of my latest free eBook How to be Happy Every Day – Even if you have ADHD is to help my fellow ADDers discover the good things in their life and about themselves. Hopefully the journaling of ideas presented in the book helps readers discover something very special about who they are, and specifically: their purpose.
.
The book has been designed for you to discover the true, wonderful, you. Even if you have ADHD! After reading it, journaling and reflecting on your “good things”, see if you find a common theme. Perhaps if you find the common theme you may also find your true purpose, if you haven’t already.

What’s your “It” factor? I know you have “It!”
