The Truth About Adult ADD and Follow-throughWritten by ADD Coach Jennifer Koretsky
If you are an adult with ADD, chances are that at some point in your life, you've felt that you are not "living up to your potential." This judgment often manifests itself when you take stock of all great ideas you've had that have never gone anywhere, and all unfinished projects that you have started but never completed. The overwhelming number of these things that have not been "followed through" can lead you to believe that you are not living up to your potential. This is simply not true. By nature, ADDers are visionaries and idea generators. If only someone would pay us to think up great ideas all day long - we'd all be rich! But we get so many great ideas all time that it would be absolutely impossible to follow through on every one of them. Think about it. If you tried to implement every good idea you ever had, would you have time to eat, sleep, or even breathe right now? Probably not. But this is not an indication that you're lazy, unable to follow through, or not living up to your potential. Successful ADDers know that they are always going to have great ideas that never come to fruition. It's just our nature to be constantly thinking, creating and innovating. We can't shut off this part of ourselves even when we try. But we simply don't have physical or mental capability to follow through on every great idea we get.

A link to information on CODEX appears at bottom of this article. This will tell you everything you need to know about CODEX to decide whether you want it or do not want it. If you value your local health food store and your ability and right to go to that store to purchase dietary supplements and over-the-counter-remedies of your choice, then join fight against CODEX. Your ability to purchase such simple items as vitamin and mineral supplements, aspirin, Tylenol, cough syrups, throat lozenges, etc., may well be lost for our lifetimes if we lose this fight against CODEX. What makes CODEX so insidious is that it is now law in both Germany and Norway. At present time, as an example, limit to vitamin C you can purchase is 30 each 50 mg tablet, a 1-month supply at 1-a-day, for equivalent of $60 USD. If CODEX becomes LAW in Canada and USA, your choices will soon dwindle to a handful of products and those left will be triple price you pay now and be available only at useless dosages. If you are Canadian, help us and your fellow Canadians by actively supporting your right to choice and your right to take care of your own body. If you are American, help your fellow Americans actively supporting your right to choice and your right to take care of your own body, and to keep CODEX out of US – petition your federal congressmen and senators, petition your state representatives and senators, even petition drug companies to help fight CODEX. And by all means, send this message to everyone on your email list – awareness is half battle.
