Most people with ADHD struggle to manage their time and to do the right things at the right times. Why are procrastination, time blindness, and tardiness such big problems? Researchers have taken a close-up look at the ADHD brain and have uncovered the reasons why it estimates, uses, and values time differently. Here, ADHD expert Ari Tuckman, Psy.D., will take a deeper look at the science of time awareness and time management through an ADHD lens. He will discuss the concepts of time horizon and “temporal discounting” to help you understand why some strategies work better than others. This webinar will teach adults to “see” time by externalizing it and “feel” time by building motivation.
