The Myth: People with ADHD are unable to pay attention to anything.
ADHD is a disorder that has been becoming pretty famous in recent  years, so I’m sure you all know what it is. For those of you who aren’t  sure, people with ADHD have trouble concentrating on tasks and can be  hyperactive or impulsive. But it isn’t true, as it sometimes seems, that  people with ADHD just can’t pay attention. Many of them can pay  attention to something that they find genuinely interesting, the same  way all of us are much more willing to be distracted from a dull task  than an enjoyable one. And, in fact, some people have trouble focusing  because they actually pay too much attention. They think about all the  sights, sounds, and smells around them, not just the task at hand. They  have to learn to deal with all the other interesting stimuli and keep  most of their attention on what is important.
