How ADHD Affects Home Organization

If you have ADHD and you've been struggling with organization, it doesn't mean there's something wrong with you. 

Do any of these organizing challenges feel familiar to you?

Do you walk in a room to organize and find yourself paralyzed and overwhelmed?

Do you find yourself spending money on organizing solutions that don't work?

Do you feel like you put in effort but never make any progress?

Or maybe you know exactly what you want to do, and yet for some reason, you just can't get started.

Organizing isn't easy. And having ADHD doesn't make it any easier.

But it doesn't have to be impossible.

It just means it's time to try working with your brain instead of against it.

In How ADHD Affects Home Organization, professional organizer, motivational speaker, and teacher of the learnable skills of organization, Lisa Woodruff will help you to:

* Understand how your mind works

* Recognize your unique strengths and weaknesses

* Find the strategies that work for you
