Add: Five Simple Tricks For Work That's Boring

Even if you have an ADD-friendly job, you probably still have certain tasks that have to b be accomplished that you just hate to do. So, you procrastinate or you avoid doing them completely. But that's not good. You have to pay the bills to keep your business running, or you have filing as part of your job. What's an person with attention deficit to do?

Some of us have built our businesses up to the point where we're able to hire people to do the stuff we hate to do. But what happens if you're just starting your business or part of your otherwise ADD-friendly job bores the heck out of you? Here are 5 ADD tricks to keep you from ignoring them completely.

1) Listen to something. If you're doing something that's mindless, you could put on a self-help tape or some kind of educational recording that relates to your business. Or, you can play music as loud as you can stand it. If you're in an office environment, put these things on an .mp3 player or use other headphones to keep from distracting others.

2) Plan your schedule every day. Start by making a list of tasks that you need to accomplish that day. Having things written down is sometimes less intimidating, and very important for anyone with ADD. A great way to accomplish this is through Mark Joyner's Simpleology at http://www.simpleology.com/ where you can do it all digitally, if you like.

3) Snack on something while working. If you just get a tin of sugarless mints or some wheat crackers or something that's healthy for you, you'll distract your sense of taste while you work on the task you hate.

4) When the focus runs out---switch! Rotate the tasks you have to do. If you have 6 things to do, split your hour into 10-minute segments. Do the task you hate for 10 minutes, then do something you like to do for 10 minutes and so on, until the hour is up. Then, start all over again. This will keep you non-bored and actively focused on each task you have to accomplish.

5) Dress for success. Put on your best business suit, even if you work at home by yourself. Somehow, just looking the part makes you feel the part, and you'll be more productive.

You'll be surprised at how well these 5 simple tricks can work for you, and help you accomplish things your ADD bran rebels against. Try them, and see if they don't make your workday smoother and your ADD brain happier.
