00:00:00
your brain is secretly ruining your life it's
sabotaging you on a daily basis and you probably
00:00:06
don't even realize it most of the time because
if you have ADHD your brain is dramatically
00:00:11
different to that of normal people which leads
to your life becoming dramatically worse if
00:00:17
you don't understand how to fix it you see your
brain's neurochemicals are lower in dopamine the
00:00:22
neurochemical that drives excitement leading to
your brain constantly seeking stimulation so life
00:00:27
doesn't get boring well what if I told you that
this leads to you being more easily attracted to
00:00:32
fights and drama which is part of the reason why
a lot of us adhders jump into toxic relationships
00:00:37
even if it's painful at least it's not boring you
know what I'm talking about it's when you scroll
00:00:43
late at night to find that dark YouTube video
you know you shouldn't click on but you secretly
00:00:48
desire the chaos and darkness it brings because at
least it makes you feel something it's also where
00:00:53
there's a high chance you've thought or will think
about clicking away from this video to something
00:00:57
more engaging but I dare you to stay because I'll
reveal the secret and how to fix this once and for
00:01:03
all forever and at the end I'll tell you about a
secret technique that you can use to put an end
00:01:09
to everything that holds you back almost like at
the push of a button let me know if you can relate
00:01:15
to this you procrastinate up until the very last
minute of a deadline so you finally have enough
00:01:20
feelings of urgency to get that project done
even though you hate it you still do it every
00:01:26
single time don't you are you getting a sense for
why you hyperfocus on and activities that provide
00:01:30
you with instant gratification rather than working
on something longterm because starting something
00:01:35
new is just more thrilling and gives you dopamine
whenever life becomes too boring you start looking
00:01:40
for drama or engage in self-sabotage and risky
Behavior since this stimulates your brain and even
00:01:47
though this often results in a downward spiral
that you know will be difficult to get out of you
00:01:53
just can't help it this is why life with ADHD can
be such a whirlwind you'd rather experience drama
00:02:00
than nothing at all let's go one layer deeper
because this stimulation problem is also the
00:02:05
reason why you're constantly choosing negative
selft talk like I'm not good enough this person
00:02:10
doesn't like me or I'll never be able to break
this cycle because what could be more stimulating
00:02:16
and keep your brain active especially when you
want to sleep at night than thinking about how
00:02:20
you can solve the problem of being a loser who
will never amount to anything but wait hold on
00:02:25
that word choose are we really choosing
these problems do we even have a choice
00:02:30
in the problems and stimulations we Chase if
we have a dopamine deficient brain what do
00:02:34
you think it's interesting because while it may
be difficult to choose in the moment perhaps we
00:02:40
should have chosen a different path altogether
right from the beginning but maybe it's also
00:02:45
not too late to start in fact right now maybe
even the best moment to start let me explain a
00:02:52
few years ago I became aware of all the negative
problems my ADHD brain purposely attracts into
00:02:57
my life and I learned about the fact that this
will never go away because ADHD will likely be
00:03:03
with you for the rest of your life which gave
me a choice to make either I keep following
00:03:09
the path I'm on right now chasing problems and
stimulation to the detriment of my physical and
00:03:13
mental health yes my brain won't get bored and
I'll be stimulated 24/7 but chances are this
00:03:19
path won't last long it's a fast life or I go with
option two what is option two well before I tell
00:03:26
you what it is it's important to understand that
problems can can be both positive and negative a
00:03:32
positive problem is a challenge for you to master
it's not an obstacle but a stepping stone it will
00:03:38
keep you engaged and give your brain stimulation
all the while propelling you forward everything
00:03:43
changed in my ADHD Journey once I realized that in
order to not derail myself I always need to have
00:03:49
intense things going on in my life but that these
can also be positive but let's talk about you yes
00:03:56
you the person watching this right now hey how
you doing what do positive problems challenges
00:04:03
look like for you well since your brain always
needs something to fix maybe you should fix for
00:04:09
a living in fact why not make fixing your main
occupation an occupation should keep you occupied
00:04:17
after all for example the data shows that a lot of
Consultants entrepreneurs or emergency responders
00:04:23
have ADHD because the crazy thing is that your
constant need for stimulation actually gives
00:04:29
you the unfair advantage of very often being the
best Problem Solver in the room and so maybe just
00:04:37
maybe you need to find a job that always gives
you something new to fix new all right let's
00:04:42
not forget about novelty because new things not
only help us stay stimulated but also give us the
00:04:48
best problems to solve you travel to a new country
can't speak the language but somehow still manage
00:04:54
to rent out a scooter for the month it's these
experiences that we learn something from that
00:04:59
we grow from and also let's not forget about what
happens when we dedicate ourselves to a new place
00:05:06
or project we meet new people one of the most
stimulating and interesting things is connecting
00:05:12
with people that you can learn something from who
have a different and New Perspective that helps
00:05:17
you see the world just a bit differently is all
of this not stimulating is all of this maybe the
00:05:23
only thing you have to do if you have ADHD well it
all sounds great and hopefully makes sense to you
00:05:29
but still none of this would work until you
fundamentally reframe your beliefs to understand
00:05:35
this one thing your ADHD brain will be stimulated
by things it wants to do not things it should do
00:05:42
you have an interest based brain that you have
trained on your wants and needs and so the most
00:05:49
important thing for you is to find interest in
growth no I'm not talking about leg extensions
00:05:55
I'm also not necessarily talking about money
growth is very personal and comes in many forms
00:06:01
it can be spiritual it can be working through
challenges in therapy yes it can also be career
00:06:06
oriented but the most important thing is just that
you become a more fulfilled person with positive
00:06:12
energy through it and realize that the problems
you solve when you're on the Journey of growth
00:06:17
disproportionately affect your energy levels
compared to those other more negative problems
00:06:23
because while negative problems suck you dry
positive challenges charge you up over over time
00:06:30
which will lead to you being able to master even
bigger challenges down the road growth attracts
00:06:36
growth if you chase challenges instead of problems
you will simultaneously attract incredible results
00:06:44
you will finally use your brain to your advantage
instead of being enslaved by it you just need to
00:06:50
reorient your focus I know for most of you this
might seem impossible right now video games and
00:06:56
parties might be the most interesting thing or
maybe you're stuck in the loop of self-sabotaging
00:07:00
behaviors we talked about earlier and I get
it I've been there but just imagine you wake
00:07:07
up in the morning and can't wait to get out of bed
just imagine having the same hyperfocus and energy
00:07:14
that you have for video games for your life just
imagine the thrill of leveling up in real life
00:07:21
every day I know it almost sounds too good to be
true but it is possible how well through Having
00:07:28
the courage to try an experiment an experiment for
30 days where you see yourself in the future not
00:07:35
the past an experiment where you allow yourself
to believe in your highest calling an experiment
00:07:41
where you notice negative selft talk but choose
not to believe it where you don't people please
00:07:47
but where you go deep inside yourself and truly
ask what you need to accomplish in your life to
00:07:52
feel more accomplished and what has the highest
likelihood of giving you that feeling every day if
00:07:58
we're talking about ask yourself what interesting
challenges will help you earn money write down
00:08:05
what you're interested in what you're good at and
what can help you earn the most and then find the
00:08:11
intersection between those three sectors choosing
that path will likely facilitate growth in every
00:08:17
aspect of your life both mentally and physically
don't make the mistake of staying in a job just
00:08:23
because it pays well remember the journey is
not supposed to be easy that's the point we ADH
00:08:30
need the challenge that comes with growth it's
absolutely necessary to keep your brain stimulated
00:08:36
yes it might seem risky right now and it is again
that's the point but also maybe the even bigger
00:08:43
risk is sacrificing yourself for the longterm
because even though the only risk we see is
00:08:48
often right in front of us the biggest risk of all
may be to not take any risk at all if you don't
00:08:54
know where or how you want to grow yet that's okay
some things only reveal themselves on the journey
00:09:01
so don't be afraid to just try different things
out and start there's no failure just progress
00:09:08
and thankfully trying things out already comes
naturally to you because throughout the years I
00:09:13
learned that we adhders have a lot of challenges
but something we usually excel at is taking risks
00:09:21
trying something new and leaving our comfort
zone is essential for this experiment to work
00:09:26
and you already have an unfair Advantage when it
comes to starting you work best when needing to
00:09:32
solve problems because they stimulate your brain
which begs the question what kind of problems
00:09:39
do you really want to solve let me know in the
comments don't stop chasing stimulation simply
00:09:46
stay stimulated through growth to get there you
need to set a goal that's so stimulating it lights
00:09:53
a fire inside of you each and every day for me it
was becoming a full-time content creator because I
00:09:59
always loved watching movies and telling stories
but if I'm completely honest with you the road
00:10:04
and getting there was anything but easy I also
struggled a lot with inconsistency poor focus and
00:10:10
just a lack of executive function in the beginning
when I was chasing this goal I was missing uploads
00:10:15
constantly not making any progress for years
on end at one point I was even on the brink
00:10:20
of giving up I was so frustrated because I made
so little progress over a few years and realized
00:10:27
if I keep going like this my dream will never
become a reality I thought I was just not able
00:10:32
to execute on it consistently enough to ever make
it work but I didn't give up just yet after tons
00:10:39
of trial and error I discovered a science-backed
process that allowed me to consistently focus and
00:10:44
execute without any executive dysfunction or
procrastination this made consistent execution
00:10:51
easy as pie I was uploading consistently and a
few months in I started growing like crazy on
00:10:57
social media to the point where I was able to quit
my job and pursue it full-time it was insane and
00:11:03
still is to this day if you want to know how this
science back process works and how you can apply
00:11:09
it into your own life click the video link in the
description this will take you to a free video
00:11:14
explaining exactly how this works without any
discipline or willpower why it works consistently
00:11:21
for almost anyone with ADHD and how this process
transformed the lives of hundreds of adhders click
