As some with ADHD, my interest fluantuats wildly. How does an average person choose a job thats suppose to be for life and not worry about loss of interest, let alone some with ADHD.

    Needed a job in high school. Went to university and decided I didn’t want to be in the field I had chosen when I graduated. Focused on first job field and got very good at it. Moved up the ranks. Got an offer at a company in a different industry from a former peer and leap frogged to the next pay band while getting out of my 20 year industry.

    My hobby is technology. I decided against going that route when in school as I didn’t want to kill my love for it. But that meant sticking with an industry I didn’t love for a long time. Found I love developing people through it all and management was my thing. Great news about that is people are people and managing them doesn’t change from industry to industry so I can go pretty much anywhere.
