The Hunt for Champions

Hello, Ortando here. For those that have visited the website Ortando.com, there is a clarion call for individuals who experience AD/HD/LD and that are successful in their lives (whatever that means to you), to consider providing a brief accounting for the website and this blog. The "Hunt for Champions" is something that started for me when I first discovered that Nicholas was dyslexic and subsequently that I have AD/HD/LD. Books citing AD/HD/LD luminaries inclusive of Thomas Edison, Albert Einstien, Leonardo Davinci, JFK, Majic Johnson, Cher and Winston Churhill to name a few, helped us to realize that brains like ours can be exceptional, extraordinary even. That it can be a wonderful asset to have AD/HD/LD. Once understood, and knowing how to be, can result in successful living and self actualization. This blog entry is again a call for Champions out there. Those of you with AD/HD/LD (some combination thereof) to write with your (short) story. A telling if you will of your success as an "Ortando". Please include your AD/HD/LD pedigree (how you know you have a brain like us) and what you've accomplished that might inspire others who may be struggling to "know how to be". (For my "champion" story and my son Nicholas' story go to Ortando.com). I can hardly wait to hear the accounting and feel free to add "tribal advice" for others to learn how to be. Thanks, Ortando. PS remember to believe in yourself and gather those around you who do as well.
