Organizing Solutions for People with ADD, 2nd Edition outlines new organizing strategies that will be of value to anyone who wants to improve their organizational skills. This revised and updated version also includes tips and techniques for keeping your latest technologies in order and for staying green and recycling with ease.
Attention deficit disorder (ADD) and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) are prevalent in society today, afflicting about 4.4 percent of the adult population - over 13 million Americans. Four out of every five adults do not even know they have ADD.
The chapters, organized by the type of room or task, consist of practical organizing solutions for people living with ADD:
- At work: prioritizing, time management, and organizing documents
- At home: paying bills on time, decluttering your house, scheduling and keeping appointments
- With kids: driving them to various activities, grocery shopping and meals, laundry, babysitters, organizing drawers and closets
- And you: organizing time for your social life, gym, and various other hobbies and activities
Any busy person will appreciate the wisdom in every sentence of this book. I got the actual book after listening to it half a dozen times on audible!
Organizing solutions for EVERYONE!

All of human passion is transfused through a mind struggling towards an ideal life. What is the meaning of our distracted rashness? Our life itself — depends on our quick ears and our faithful memory.
"Some golden rules:
1. Inventory must conform to storage.
i) Make your things easy to access & easier to put away. Ease of stowage takes precedence over ease of retrieval.
ii) Only toss or sort at once. In the modern age, our society’s rarest commodity is not goods, but time. The ADHD sufferer, who requires more time on average to complete a task, must guard his time as the most precious of all his possessions.
iii) Family members can help when professional assistance is unaffordable or impractical. Negotiating a trade of services with a family member or friend rather than continuously asking for favours may keep one partner from feeling used and the other from feeling burdensome.
iv) Spending money to get help may well be the simplest, most convenient system.
v) Efficiency equals resourcefulness. Always go shopping with a list.
vi) Make purging a priority. If the number of your possessions is small, your shelves are uncluttered.
2. Join the revolt against consumption.
The most difficult part of any job, getting started, has to be confronted and overcome multiple times for the ADHD sufferer to accomplish even the most banal of tasks."
