You don't have to be a famous person to be inspired by celebrities who have overcome the odds against them in turning their careers into smashing success stories. In his book - Famous People With ADHD - 12 Real Life, Inspirational Stories Of How Your Child Can Overcome ADHD And Succeed In LIfe, Rory F. Stern, PsyD illustrates how such famous people as Justin Timberlake, Richard Branson and Terry Bradshaw, just to name a few of the twelve real life superstars who deal with ADHD - attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, made their lives work against overwhelming odds.Dr. Stern believes that those who have come before us and found a way to succeed are worth learning about. He should know, for he holds a doctorate in Clinical Psychology and a Graduate Certificate in Executive Coaching from the Massachusetts School of Professional Psychology. Dr. Stern is also the Founder and Chief Behavioral Therapist at the ADHD Gifted Center. In this book you will discover the many questions that he asked in creating an inspiring foundation that we can all learn from; such questions as how they do it? - what challenges did they overcome? - what was there attitude?What I like about this book is the positive message of the famous people who struggled, yet overcame their difficulties by reaching into their untapped potentiality and exploding with a desire and belief that nothing was going to stop them; a life lesson for us all when faced with struggles that at times can be overwhelming. The stories of these superstars are not only inspiring, but illustrative for us, especially people with ADHD in coping, surpassing and finding a way out when none seems currently present.The sad part is that not everyone who lives with undiagnosed ADHD has as much good fortune. For many, especially children, it can make a negative impact on their lives and in some cases be a complete disaster. The inspiring part is that Dr. Stern is a professional, who is dedicated to helping individuals with ADHD and their families; especially with his Help Your ADHD Child, the fastest growing, and most supportive ADHD community on Facebook, that he is the founder and moderator of. With such commitment you know without a doubt that this author not only has a book worth reading, but is exploding with a fire and belief that can make a positive difference to individuals struggling with ADHD.
