Great. Dr. Bonnie Cramond published a paper for The National Research Center On The Gifted and Talented called “The Coincidence of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder and Creativity.” It turns out that there's a list of personality traits commonly associated with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder and get this - that they're also associated with highly creative people. Here's the list:
• Inattention and Daydreaming
• Sensation Seeking
• Inability to finish projects
• Hyperactivity
• Enthusiasm and Playfulness
• Difficult Temperament
• Deficient Social Skills
• Academic Underachievement
• Hypersensitivity to Stimulation
• Mood Swings
That pretty much sums up the entire staff at VIA. We'll have to keep this list handy for the next time we're writing a help wanted ad, or creating a job description.
Do you exhibit more than six items on the list? If so, stop by our studio, and we'll help you through it. Or we'll watch TV together. Or play pinball. Or run around in circles outside. Wheeee!
