What college will be like ?
I don't feel like I am a strong student and struggled a lot in high school. I never really felt that college was for me. However, I applied and was accepted at a technical school. I just hope I can handle it as I feel I would make a great electrician. It is just the homework and me handling it with my ADHD. I tend to work slower so I don't always get my assignments done in time.

I am 30, a freelance writer, ADHD, with too many interests, confused what to choose. Any help?
I have multiple interests like filmmaking, movies, art/digital art, fiction writing/novel, screenwriting, basically anything related to story and the craft of storytelling in any medium- writing, visual, etc. With that, I am also too driven for pyschology, self-help, sprituality and philosphy stuff. Then some business aspect with blogging or online stuff attracts me too with the same with Youtube. I am fascinated with content creation for a long time. Having diagnosed with adhd, choosing one thing feels painful and like i am leaving a part of my personality behind, missing out. Even though i entertained the fact that i can be all or most or some one by one over time, and not have to choose. you know the specialization vs generalization thing. But struggling with the concept of not being master in one as well. Any help on this, any resource or anything will be great!
How do I focus on a fixed goal when i'm interested in too many things ?
I can't focus and work on a single goal since I have too many interests, my mind keeps getting distracted and i'm unable to work on any of them. The problem is I want to do too many things, I want to be a journalist in BBC or NHK, get a degree in law, become a dermatologist and on stage musican. Whenever I find something new, it catches my interest and I start digging around it. Ultimately, I want to travel the world, explore cultures and have a lot of fun.
I have many years of Business Intelligence experience, but am in the process of transitioning to ADHD coaching. Can you recommend a way to build out a new LinkedIn Profile?
