You will succeed most in a job that you are interested in or passionate about, that doesn’t require a lot of your lacking skills. But it’s possible to be successful in a job you love even if it requires some of the skills you struggle with — you just have to find tools and strategies to help in areas of weakness.
I was first thinking a job coach might be helpful, but I think an ADHD coach would actually be more helpful, because they can help you set goals and create the systems to achieve them, even to succeed with the tasks you’re weak in.
