    But the superpower of ADHD is being Jack-of-all-Trades.

    Specialists are valuable, but when they specialize themselves into a corner, a generalist can usually get them out.

      Today’s world is built on being super specialized. All ADHD is someone who is wired to be a generalist and constantly changing tasks, filling in where needed. Before the 20th century, it didn’t matter and wasn’t an issue; now, it does. The failure we feel is society being overly optimized and unable to find us a place.
