I had a disappointment with myself yesterday. That happens a lot for people with ADHD. What I found most discouraging was that in everything related to this disappointment, I could see where ADHD gives me trouble. But I couldn’t say, “It’s not my fault. It’s my ADHD.” In fact, with this knowledge, I have more responsibility, not less.
Starting today, I’m going to have to find a better strategy for staying on focus. But the good thing is that today is a new day. The past is behind me. I cling to the following verse on a daily basis. It gives me hope because the Lord’s mercies are new every morning.
Lamentations 3:22-23 (KJV)
It is of the LORD’s mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.
