Research Recap: Achievement goals aren't the answer for ADHD and what to do instead

The ADHD Skills Lab

Hello, and welcome back to our ADHD Skills Lab! 

This week, I was excited to pull a little something from our archives for a deep ADHD dive into motivation theory and completing your goals with ADHD.

As always, Skye joins me as we get to the bottom of:

  •  How and why we set goals
  • The best way to stick to our goals
  •  How time blindness and working memory issues can make it harder to meet our goals.

We also unpacked the role of mindfulness in emotional regulation and looked at how it can help us quiet self-criticism.

Thanks for tuning in!

Diagnosed with ADHD at the start of her PhD, Skye Waterson spent years researching what actually works and writing about it for thousands of founders. The pattern she kept finding: ADHD business owners don't have a focus problem, they have an operations problem, because the whole business runs through their own head. Now she and her husband, former programmer Robert Waterson, work as fractional COOs for those founders. They find the bottleneck, hire the fix, and build the system that holds.
