I’m reading Organizing Solutions for People with ADHD by Susan Pinksky and it is full of helpful advice and useful tips. But I don’t like to hear the truth sometimes.

        I, too, immediately looked at my piles (plural) of unfinished (some, barely started) projects…

        A jack of all trades, is a master of none (but is much better than a master of one). At least we’re learning a lot as we go through life. That has to amount to something, right? … right??
