First off, I have to thank Peter Shankman for this wonderfully perfect phrase! I was “attending” a webinar that he was presenting at about PR and as he was speaking (non-stop for almost a full hour), he mentioned that he has what he calls Shiny Ball ADHD.
I totally connected with him! This fits me to a tee -
sometimes! Of course when I say this to people I have to illustrate by turning
my head to look at a non-existent passing shiny gizmo.
I tend to start talking about one thing (or someone else
does & I interrupt them because I have to get this thought out of my head
or it will just disappear or it seems like my head will explode) – and all of a sudden I’m going off in another
direction on another topic…
Apparently, in my mind, we’ve already been in the midst of
discussing whatever random subject pops into my head!
