What You Can Learn From ADHD Excuses

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.



“The dog ate it” could actually be useful… (learn why TONIGHT!)

Do you ever feel like a kid who has to make up creative excuses for not having his homework?

You could actually gain quite a bit of useful knowledge from your excuses if you tracked them.

Think about the last time you didn’t get something done on time, or didn’t follow through on a commitment because you couldn’t even get started.

Focus on a recent incident, try to remember what actually happened to get in your way.

Maybe you forgot.  Or you over-committed and didn’t have time.  Or you couldn’t find whatever it was you needed.  Or you hyper-focused on something else you did first and got lost in it… and never got to the next thing.  (That’s been a big one for me lately!)

Or maybe you really left it out and the dog ATE it!

Chances are, with ADD / ADHD, we have a lot of these incidents in our lives, whether or not we actually come up with more creative explanations to tell others.

 

Keeping a written log or diary of these things, that you might think of as lame excuses, is a goldmine of information!   Because your pattern of excuses, roadblocks, or whatever gets in the way of you getting things done as you intended, is critical information to know to develop the right strategy or solution.

  • For example, if your dog ate that roast you were supposed to bring for the potluck dinner, chances are you have a habit of leaving things out!  So a good place to start on getting things to work out right would be to develop a ritual of awareness or of putting things away before leaving a room.
