Son, I've been thinking: so your apartment doesn't have a wall between the bedroom and living room (I live in a NYC studio), you don't have a car (again NYC), no girlfriend (consulting), I don't get this consulting thing but it seems you jump from job to job...and we all know you're not a doctor. What's your point mum? All good things to think about since you're 30 now.

Tell me you’re ADHD without telling me you are ADHD.
I currently work 2 full time jobs & a pt contractor for 2 years and I’m currently on the verge of burnout and confused on career growth.

I’m professionally excelling in all work areas and have been promoted in all work areas at least once over the past 2 years.

The issue is I find myself as a director of marketing (I over see 8 offices & a team of 7), Sales Client Partner, and Manager Administrator of Web/App Development

I firmly believe leadership makes the difference.

Not only, it highlins each one's value, but especially spreads this value among others.
I'm speaking about life, in a broad sense, which also include work life, but it is not limited to that.

Looking for any kind of suggestion to improve my leadership: books, experiences, attitudes, daily-routine, ...

Thank you!
