ADHD and the Importance of Context | ADHD Coach Jeff Copper
In this video, we delve into the world of ADHD and discuss why context is crucial when it comes to understanding and managing it effectively. We explore how the environment, situation, and circumstances can impact individuals with ADHD, and why being mindful of these factors is key to providing the right support.
Got ADHD? Are you looking for tips, tricks, and strategies?

The answer depends on what you're paying attention to. Jeff will also illustrate this with an example that will blow your mind. If you're struggling finding answers, this is a video you won't want to miss. Join us to gain valuable insights into the importance of context for individuals with ADHD.

Your videos are not boring and they get to the point pretty quickly. I enjoy your videos and love the length of them.

[@AttentionTalkVideo]

Wow! You made my day. Thank you.

[@tanvipunjabi104]

Exactly! I have a chart with a picture of a person aiming an arrow towards a target, saying 'Hard work never fails. But, hard work without an an aim always fails'. Modify it as 'without an aim-with-a-context'

[@AttentionTalkVideo]

Exceptionally well stated!

[@TheRealJackfrog]

Hey man I love your videos. The other ADHD people i follow make me feel good, which is nice. But your advice actually lets me function.

[@AttentionTalkVideo]

can't tell you how much that means to me. Thank. One of the big issues these days is people are attracted to emotion and what they want to work (even thought it doesn't)... thus, people market to what feels good to people... not what works or the reaslity of life. That said, it is very hard to get content that people view that is more practical. That is the reason i'm grateful for your comment.

[@laulauthefish-ww4yy]

I love your videos!!! Dont let those people get you down, in my opinion you actually are getting to the point. Your videos aren't too long and they're straight forwards! So thank you!

[@AttentionTalkVideo]

Thanks for your motivating and kind words... and thanks for tuning in.

[@lexica510]

Your videos are so concise and well-organized, it would be hard to make them much tighter and still use complete sentences, I think. Thank you for explaining the "why" as well as the "how" when talking about how to live with ADHD.

[@AttentionTalkVideo]

God I love it when people "get" it! Thanks for posting... so motivating.

Someone i was talking to said "im hot and youre a mess" in a conversation in which they had said 5 different things that "i am hot" could have referred to. I thought they were implying that they were themselves physically attractive. I asked for clarrification tho cauae i wasnt entire sure whethet they were temperature hot, hot headed, physically hot, hot as in popular. They got annoyed when i asked for some clarification lmao

[@AttentionTalkVideo]

LOL! You asked them to think... to put more effort in their communications cause they were not clear and it annoyed them. Happens often. Thinking is more effortful than most believe it to be. I can feel your frustration from the interaction. Thanks for posting.

When I need to work on a complicated issue I grab a blank piece of paper (I have a pile of printer paper nearby in my cubicle at work and in my home), or turn to a blank page in a spiral notebook, or open a blank document on the computer. Then I break it down like an outline, figure out the first step, then the first step of the first step, etc. if the step is to get information then I also write the information there. That gets me into it enough to get started and I keep notes I need there as I go.

[@AttentionTalkVideo]

Booya! I love it when people post lived experiences. Thanks.

[@lagomorphia9]

I just found your channel and think its brilliant! You are very well spoken and the concepts are very understandable. My adhd is crippling but I dont need the feel good platitudes of many other channels because, at the end of the day, I still wont feel good about myself or have results if there is no mechanical explanation of where I am failing. Your videos seem to point out where my breaks are so I know what to fix. Otherwise, to use your words, its still too multifaceted and ambiguous for me to recognize.

[@AttentionTalkVideo]

i can't tell you how much your post made my day. Especially the I don't need the feel good platitues of many other channels. I don't want people to feel bad about themselves, my hope is for them to meet themselves where they are, as is, and to address and admit what is hard. Why? to give ADHD the respect it is due. IT IS HARD. Once you admit something is hard and give it the respect it needs you can problem solve forward. Know it is 5 o'clock on 9 minutes... i'll have a glass of wine to celebrate this post. Thanks again.

As a ministry student, I have discovered context is critical. I often want quick answers because I get anxious if I have to think longer. However, doing Biblical exegesis and Theology projects have made me appreciate slowing down the desire for a quick answer and taking time to see what others have to say about the subject.

[@AttentionTalkVideo]

Agreed 100%... ministry or religion in general is all about context! Thrilled this resonated with you. Thanks for posting.
