The Optimization Trap

Have you ever had a project or interest you feel so strongly about, but couldn't seem to take any real steps toward completion, because you’re stuck trying to brainstorm the absolute best approach? Or if you do find the best possible solution, do you find yourself anxious at the idea of executing that perfect solution? If you do, you’re not alone.
Now Presenting, ADHD, and what Jaye calls the Optimization Trap.
After exploring the Optimization Trap and why we can get stuck in it, host Jaye Lin is joined by Ron Capalbo and Liz Welshman, and the three ADHD coaches discuss their experiences with overoptimizing, as well as provide suggestions on how to get ourselves out of the trap.
