Meta Skills, ADHD Success as a Team Sport, and The Sloth EP 117
12/02/21 • 41 min
My guest, Aron Croft, and I discuss inattentive ADHD and how this presentation means people are frequently lost in the cracks. If you don’t fit that stereotype. Aron explains how inattentive type presents and shares his own story of being diagnosed later in life.
With ADHD the passion alone isn’t enough. You have to have a goal that you’re genuinely excited about and identify our super skills. Streamlined productivity systems are a necessity for people who can’t get off the couch.
Finally, Aron shares his three productivity strategies.
Bio
Aron Croft appeared to have it all when he got into Harvard but that was the beginning of his demise. He struggled nonstop for 15 years until he was broke, divorced, and earning minimum wage, failing out of his first 7 jobs and businesses.
After getting a Master's degree in Coaching Psychology and a diagnosis of Inattentive ADHD, his life changed and he built a successful Fortune 500 career consulting to companies such as Marriott, Deloitte, Johnson & Johnson, McDonald's, KPMG, and United Healthcare.
He also got remarried, and most importantly, discovered how to get sh*t done with a neurodivergent brain. Now he’s on a mission to raise awareness about Inattentive ADHD, how it goes under the radar, and how to rebuild your life post-diagnosis.
