Hobby intelektualne
Mózgi z ADHD kochają nowe systemy. Pierwsze 10 godzin dowolnego intelektualnego hobby to te najlepsze: łamanie reguł, wyłapywanie wzorców, oglądanie własnego mózgu, który przerabia się w czasie rzeczywistym. Potem zainteresowanie zaczyna wyciekać. Używaj tej listy, żeby wskakiwać w świeże systemy zanim dopadnie cię nuda. Szachy, języki, filozofia, dziwna matematyka, otwieranie zamków, krótkofalarstwo. Wybierz coś nieznanego i startuj.
