Peter Shankman: Turning ADHD into a Superpower on The Anxious Truth

ADHD isn't a liability, but rather a bit of a superpower. Peter took action to maximize the things he's really good at, while outsourcing and minimizing the negative impacts of the things he's traditionally not been so good at. This is a lesson on how to find the silver lining in a mental health issue!
