Publisher Description
Matt Curry is a successful entrepreneur with A.D.D. In this book, he takes time to explore myths and truths of his A.D.D. experience. Here are some excerpts from the Introduction by Cameron Herold, author of the best-seller, Double Double: How to Double Your Revenue and Profit in Three Years or Less.
¬Entrepreneurs are different. We're wired differently. We're the 1%. To others, we're on the lunatic fringe, and to many, we're risk takers. However, when you get a group of entrepreneurs in a room together, we're pretty much all the same. One of the key traits that makes us who we are is that most of us "suffer" from Attention Deficit Disorder (A.D.D.).
¬ Matt's book outlines some of the tips to leveraging A.D.D. And as all of us who have it know, we want the short cuts; we want the easy solutions. His book gives them to us.
¬ You're an entrepreneur. Entrepreneurs are wired differently. Embrace that, and grow. Matt's book will give you the inspiration to do it.
¬ Matt Curry has adopted the posture that, for him, A.D.D. is not a negative. In fact, he has embraced it. "I've channeled my A.D.D. onto a positive track and used it to build businesses that have not only made a lot of money but have also made a lot of money for other people and made their lives better. And that's what this book is all about: how my off -the-wall A.D.D. tendencies inspired me to create and execute a set of proven principles for growing a successful business." ~ Matt Curry, The A.D.D. Entrepreneur

Excellent Book
I Know You're ADD...take the time to read this book!
This is a great book.
I'm not going to lie, there are some blindingly obvious things in here, where you can roll your eyes a little and say, "Really? You need to tell us that our Employees/Team Members need to be good on the phone?"--but then it's followed up by instituting a recording system, listening in--knowing what's going on--being a little horrified by it, and then instituting a specific, "Say yes to an hour or less," CAMPAIGN to fix it. The cool thing is, it's all replicateable, and you'd be smart to do this in your business.
Outstanding.
I'm constantly amazed at the great, great information that we can get--for a few bucks, or even less--that can really change a life. Here's Matt Curry--a man that's spent 30 years in a business, running at the absolute highest level, building a multi-million dollar company--and he's giving away his best information on how to do it.
This is very, very good information, brought to you by someone that has DONE it. It's not vague academic theory, but very specific and actionable information given by someone that's been in the trenches of business.
I'm A.D.D. I'm the kid that felt like school was a prison, that got in trouble for talking too much, or wanting to read about my own interests rather than the boring stuff assigned. I was always different, and labeled, "distracted, forgetful, disorganized, restless..." (taken from the book). Instead, I should've been labeled, "Curious, creative, energetic, and involved." These are all traits that can lead to an extraordinary entrepreneur...and why, as Robert Kiyosaki says, "Some of the 'A' students will end up working for the, 'C' students." If you can relate, this book is for you.
The book is filled with great ideas, and I'm going to implement several in my businesses: flash financial reports, personality tests in hiring, two-minute meetings throughout the day, the phone training mentioned above. I'm not even scratching the surface with these--they're just some of the more important ones I need to do right away.
Thank you, Mr. Curry, for spilling your guts and making my life better.
If you're reading this--get the dang book. You'll be glad you did.
