As the title of Dr. Ned Hallowell's book would suggest, these days, we all seem to be “crazy busy.”
Throw adult attention deficit disorder (ADHD) into the mix — and staying organized and on track can be a tall order.
A personal digital assistant, or PDA, can help. A handheld metal “brain” that stores information, like numbers and addresses, a PDA also offers a calendar (extra handy for those of us with adult ADHD!).
Other uses for this ADD-friendly gadget:
- record notes and lists
- download games and digital books
- input events, appointments, and “to-dos”
- program reminders, with beeping sounds that alert you when it's time to take action
Even the PDA veterans among my clients can learn new tricks to get their lives to run more smoothly. Here are suggestions for using a PDA to do just that.
