As much as you may work on managing the ADD symptoms that get in your way, they will appear. After all, no one is perfect! So, what do you do? <span style=\"color: #3366ff;\">First, be accepting of yourself. At the same time, acknowledge where you may have to do more work in addressing the ADD symptoms that hinder you from succeeding.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The next step is to identify the expectations of the people with whom you have business relationships. Then decide if you are willing to commit to meeting these expectations. Once you have made this decision, you can identify what gets in the way of meeting these expectations, whether ADD related or not, and create strategies that will help you meet them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"color: #3366ff;\">Review:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1.
