Faster Than Normal

Peter Shankman

Rituals and strategies tailored to ADHD can transform its challenges into strengths, as Peter Shankman’s journey illustrates. By identifying and avoiding personal triggers—like Las Vegas for its addictive temptations or lateness for its anxiety-inducing effects—Shankman minimizes distractions and stress. He emphasizes the importance of acting immediately, setting firm deadlines, and establishing rituals over fleeting resolutions to create lasting habits. Simplifying choices, such as wearing a consistent “uniform” or eating on a set schedule, helps conserve mental energy. Tracking habits around sleep, exercise, and diet provides a sense of progress, while tools like Google Apps and decluttering streamline focus. Inspired by the book *Delivered from Distraction*, Shankman reframed ADHD as a superpower, using its unique traits like creativity and spontaneity to his advantage. His story underscores the potential of ADHD when managed effectively, paving the way for a fulfilling and extraordinary life. Next, we’ll delve deeper into managing triggers and building sustainable routines.
