Paul Lloyd's Linkedin Analytics

ADHD + Entrepreneurship + Marketing = Chaos? 🤯 I'm building my LinkedIn presence in public to figure it out. Here's why... Last week, I was 8 cups of coffee deep at 2am, staring at an overwhelming number of 17 browser tabs. My brain was frozen halfway through 3 social media posts, A new image editing platform I started, and a half-empty template for a content calendar I had bought that morning. ADHD entrepreneur brain strikes again! When it came to marketing my ever-expanding empire… My strategy resembled a beautifully orchestrated chaos. If you count the ”orchestrated” part, of course. I’d tried the whole “post at this time, on this day” thing. If I had a dollar for every strict content calendar or sales funnel I followed from some 'marketing guru'… I would have been sipping mojitos in Hawai'i by now. But here’s what the ADHD-fueled frenzy taught me: I was trying to play a game with rules set for a different team. A neurotypical team. And my ADHD brain did not sign up for that. So here’s what I’m doing: Building in public... I’m building a way of marketing for the ADHD entrepreneur. No more trying to fit into the mold of perfection. No more shoes on the wrong feet. Just raw, real, and ready to make a serious impact. Because I know I'm not the only ADHD entrepreneur out there. There’s a whole tribe of us fighting the same battles. They’re trying to win the same exact war on daily basis. And no one wrote the playbook for their brain, too. Until now. ADHD entrepreneurs: Let's connect. I want to hear from you.

I just did something that terrifies me: I asked for help. For years, I believed strength meant handling everything alone. "Just work harder," they said. And so I did—until chronic procrastination nearly derailed my business. I hit a wall. Feeling weak, embarrassed, and honestly scared, I've finally given in and booked an ADHD assessment. Here's why it matters: Admitting you need help isn't easy, especially when you've spent your life proving you can do it alone. But sometimes, pushing harder is exactly what's holding you back. Do you recognize this struggle? > Constant overwhelm and burnout. > Endless tabs open, zero tasks finished. > Feeling isolated, misunderstood, and secretly terrified of failure. I've been there—deeply, painfully there. But here's the hopeful part: Asking for help is not weakness; it's self-respect. It's giving yourself permission to thrive, not just survive. Here's what helped me get unstuck: Acknowledging my limits: Accepting that procrastination is part of my wiring Seeking specialized support: Finding an ADHD clinician (that's another post all together!) Starting to find and build procrastination-friendly routines: Creating clear, structured systems tailored specifically for my brain. Counting down, here's the truth clearly laid out: > You don't have to do it alone. > It's okay—and powerful—to ask for support. Your productivity and self-worth skyrocket when you embrace your authentic self. I'm sharing this openly so you know you're not alone. It's time we normalize asking for help as entrepreneurs with procrastination. Have you struggled to ask for support? Drop a comment—let's navigate this journey together.
