In Conversation - Hadar Swersky Winning in Business with ADHD

Rael Bricker and Lindsay Adams Episode 116

“But people with ADHD, the fact that everybody around us says they have ADHD, it's, it's, it makes this condition a cheap condition. Now everybody can have it just got to have a mobile phone doesn't mean you have ADHD. It just means you're rude, impolite, or just not concentrating at this moment doesn't mean you have a problem to disconnect from one thing and go to another thing, it doesn't mean all the things that ADHD means.”

 

“And that's what I think that's why I think passion is the most important thing to say to a 20-year-old. Don't chase money, don't chase, ego position, whatever it is. Chase passion. And if you don't know what your passion is, then say to yourself, I don't know what my passion is play around with it for a few years and figure it out. And don't be afraid.”

“My golden rule is not to decide anything on spot. That's, that's my golden rule”

Who is Hadar Swersky?

I have been involved in business since I can remember myself. Buying, selling, starting new ventures, you name it.

Only after several years in business did I realise that I have severe ADHD that not only affects my “life choices” (risk takers???), but also my day-to-day performance. I set out to establish some ground rules to help me along and found that these rules really helped me succeed.

Over the years I discussed these rules with colleagues and friends and came to the understanding that they were insightful, yet simple to follow, and due to popular demand, I sat down to write down these rules.

This is a book for people with ADHD, it takes just a few minutes to read, yet should have a long-lasting effect on you.

Enjoy your reading and most importantly please write to me and share your experiences after reading this book.

Hadar.
