It's no surprise that most of the modern world (global community) will be tuned into the same one television program tonight.
Heck, you might even be one of the millions (if not billions) of people watching tomorrow night's NFL Super Bowl extravaganza.
I know I will be glued to my television set tomorrow afternoon and evening. Living outside of Boston, I have a very strong interest in watching history as my local team strives for a "perfect record" (not perfection, but a perfect record).
On top of that, I absolutely have to watch the commercials. I live for Super Bowl commercials. It's the one time of year advertisers compete like crazy to get your attention.
Reasons to watch the Super Bowl:
You see - while millions and millions will be glued to their televisions tomorrow night, many of us will be doing it for different reasons.
And the same is real for people struggling with ADHD:
The above list takes the very same idea of who watches the Super Bowl, and why, with the hope to show you that ADHD means different things to many people.
While we might all agree that ADHD affects the brain and how people are able to function, individuals with ADHD all experience their symptoms differently and might even go about managing them differently.
But the real lesson here is that you might see your ADHD differently than the next person.
And that's ok!
PS - I mentioned something about a perfect record:
Oh yea - and let's not forget that in tomorrow's Super Bowl - the New England Patriots are pursuing a "perfect season." Notice, they are not a perfect team - just good enough to be going for a perfect record.
The difference:
The perfect record is a result of fighting, working hard, determination, and persistence. They never gave up. But they did make mistakes!
