		<title>Gulf Coast Disaster</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This whole thing is starting to be clearer to me. It&#8217;s the first time I have written about something that doesn&#8217;t directly have to do with ADD or with Coaching. 
This may be the most significant disaster in the history of human kind. It is certainly one of them either way. I&#8217;ve heard people in [...]]]></description>

		<title>It&#8217;s Just a Tool</title>
		<description><![CDATA[There are whole corporations who give their employees "thinking outside the box" awards. Trying to get them to see solutions or different than "standard" ways to do things. Then there are people like us who hear about that and say "what box?". Outside the box is where we live, we've never been in it, we don't even know what it is...

Having ADD is just like the machete...It's good or bad, depending o what perspective you elect to take on it.

		<title>So why IS it good to have ADD anyway?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[What special gifts has having ADD given you

		<title>Why are we STILL discussing if it&#8217;s real?&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I was watching the Cal Thomas show for a bit last night and the discussion turned to whether or not ADD was a real thing or something made up so therapists can make a few dollars on it.
