If it doesn’t feel right then it’s hard (impossible) to give a shit. I hear that a lot here.

Money, grades, the advice of revered authority. None of it works. I just blow it off. And suffer of course. But I’m still poking along.

But a couple of things have felt right. And those things go very well. I can draw, I can write software. I can successfully give my attention to a project like that.

One such thing is meditation. Whatever’s going on with ADHD, meditation messes with it. I found the button in the center of my head that makes ADHD happen. It feel 100% right. It’s like I found a magic thing.

So if you are an ADHD guy then maybe it would feel right for you too.

    Meditation, in a nutshell, is about manipulating and cultivating your attention (the buddhists call it “awareness”). Step 1 is finding a meditation technique that works for you. Experimentation may be necessary.

    Here’s my favorite meditation guide. It’s short, clear and has nice pictures.
