This is an excellent question! I'm currently pursuing a Ph.D. in Business Management while managing ADHD, and I want to share some tips that might help you. Always keep your future goals in mind; they are your motivation for staying engaged with your studies. Whenever you can choose topics for your assignments, focus on what you love. This could mean writing papers on business concepts or exploring how the material connects to your interests.

It's important to seek support from your school. They can offer helpful resources like extended deadlines, special exam arrangements, and dedicated staff to guide you through your degree. Also, talk to your professors about any difficulties you face in class. They can provide valuable support.

Here are some tips to keep you on track:
1. Use Your Passions as Much as Possible
2. Get University Accommodations
3. Work and Study in Quiet Environments
4. Complete Your Assignments as Early as Possible
5. Communicate with Your Professor as Soon as You are Experiencing Challenges

You've got this! Keep pushing forward and remember, you're not alone on this journey.
