Why This Book Was Written
Could ADHD be to entrepreneurship what charisma is to sales? In reading Focu$, you will learn that the answer is a resounding, “Yes and more!”
Focu$ author, Dr. Shane K. Perrault (aka “Dr. Shane”), writes that “while media attention is focused on the diagnosis of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) among children, in 2007 the American Journal of Psychiatry reported that at least 10 million U.S. adults also have ADHD.” Rather than these adults living limited lives, in Focu$, Dr. Shane provides a blueprint for ADHD adults to unleash their talents, with an emphasis on the skills, tools and knowledge necessary to succeed in business and entrepreneurship. Through Focu$, readers at all levels of ADHD will learn to harness the beneficial traits of attention deficit, and those in business will learn to convert attention deficits into profits.
With Focu$, you learn to:
- Employ proven strategies to maximize your level of ADHD’s positive traits
- Unlock your hidden entrepreneurial prowess
- Recognize the ADHD advantages that are stepping stones to business success
- Counter the negative misconceptions about ADHD
No one was more qualified to write Focu$ than Dr. Shane. Despite being diagnosed with ADHD, his diverse and successful career represents a living example of what anyone with ADHD can accomplish.
From the very first page, Focu$ is an easy-to-read and fun approach to what has traditionally been a technical subject. While grounded in business culture and language, it also highlights effective treatments that do not rely on medications. Additionally, it provides readers with a multitude of resources, self-tests as well as contact information to organizations committed to providing cutting-edge understandings about ADHD.
As founder of Entrepreneurs with ADHD and The ADHD Performance Clinic, Dr. Shane wants you to know that “your ability to hyper-focus, think outside of the box, be highly intuitive and resilient, exert boundless levels of energy, and thrive in risky situations – are just some of the traits that disproportionately propel people with ADHD to succeed in business and in life” once they learn to Focu$.
