Turns out there's a really fun way to help yourself pay better attention!
Play was not always a part of my life as an adult. Like many people with ADHD, I developed a habit of working six or seven days a week. I don’t work full time each day, but I was in front of my computer working on a project or task most days. The more I worked, the longer tasks seemed to take. I felt I had to “stick with it” until I had reached the end goal.
This explains why stimulant medications make a task seem more rewarding or exciting to individuals with ADHD. If you take a prescribed medication, you see otherwise boring tasks as more interesting. This is also why play is an effective way to manage the symptoms of ADHD. When we are engaged in pleasurable activity, more dopamine is released in our brain.
Now think of a time when you totally rocked, a time when you were a superstar! You were on time, in the groove, at the top of your game. I bet that you were doing something you are good at, that you enjoy, with people you like , you were in a good mood, and maybe you were having fun.
