If you are looking for a career change, or a job like many North Americans are.....having ADD can be a real advantage! There are some great benefits in having ADD, try to accentuate the positive and sell YOU!

Adult ADHD Coach Pete Quily has a great page on his site called Positive Characteristics of People with Attention Deficit Disorder, where he lists 151 positive characteristics. I think 151 might be a few too many for a career path discussion, so here are what I think the top 10 characteristics are, in no particular order:

1. Comfortable talking in front of groups
2. Confidence
3. Creates connections easily
4. Good at customer relations
5. Entrepreneurial
6. Good at motivating self and others
7. Good at problem solving
8. High energy - go, go, go
9. Quick thinking
10. Thinks big, dreams big
