Online schooling can be great because you can work at your own pace but it can also be difficult when you’re needing extra support or you’re needing to make sure that you’re getting things done for accountability. I have three questions today that I’ve been asked recently that I want to share with you and I hope that I’ll help you and your experience with this online schooling.
1. Do I need to enforce where my student studies?
2. My student takes forever to do their work, is there something I can do to help them be faster?
3. My student gets frustrated so easily and gives up before he/she can get help, what can I do?

The Coronavirus Pandemic Needs Your ADHD Creativity
Calling all creatives and out of the box thinkers!
If you are following me and reading this then that is YOU.
We are in a time that calls for us to tap into our inner creative energy to navigate through our current world crisis.
How do we respond to our duty to protect our vulnerable and go about our daily business while minimizing the hysteria?
What can we do to slow our movement and isolate ourselves yet remain productive in our career paths while managing our anxiety?
How do stay engaged with our family, friends and co-workers and protect ourselves while managing our fears?
The way we handle the stress that the pandemic is causing our world will determine how we recover from the overall effect it is currently having on ALL OF OUR LIVES.
This demonstrates more than ever our ONE WORLD ECONOMY and need for global solutions.
When times have been tough in my life whether it be in work, child rearing or personal matters, I got through many days with this mantra.
“This Too Shall Pass.”
It gave me a sense of calm and foresight that there was a light at the end of the tunnel of this Coronavirus Pandemic. (COVID-19)
How can we CREATIVELY steer our lives NOW in the most sensible direction for when it does pass?

Embrace all of what makes you unique and go with it. . It is precisely this mentality that will allow you to excel and shine in this very competitive world. .
But HOW? It is so hard when my whole life I have been told to act a certain way or do a certain thing. .
Tip: . Go on a mental journey to when you were young enough to not care what you did or how you acted and get in touch with what your innate interests and personality was like then. .
Often you here people refer to successful people like this…. . ”They always were doing ________ . . From a young age they had ___________interests. . Fill in the blank with what that was for you! .
For me, you could find me wandering around our blackberry infested backyard eating the plump fruit while building intricate villages out of random sticks, leaves and insects I found. . I was building my world and creating for hours. . I still have this desire to create and be in touch with nature and incorporate it into my work. . What about you? What makes you wonderfully different? . You Do You .
