4. Reevaluate your goals and priorities.
It’s possible that you may be feeling overwhelmed because you’re trying to do too much or pursuing goals that don’t align with your values. Take some time to reflect on what’s truly important to you and reevaluate your goals and priorities accordingly.
5. Practice self-compassion.
Managing ADHD as an entrepreneur can be challenging, but it’s important to remember that you’re not alone and you’re doing the best you can. Be kind and patient with yourself, and remember that progress is not always linear.
