![]() There is nothing more painful for a visionary than being a visionary with ADHD. I'm not kidding. If you are lucky enough to be called a visionary leader, and you suffer from this, life can get pretty tough. Why? Because your ability to cast vision....after vision.....after vision....of how things should be without actually getting there gets old. You lose credibility. Sure, people will habitually leave and new people will replace them and start the new cycle of becoming enthralled with the charisma of the vision and inspiration, but you never really grow or go anywhere....or at least anywhere far. Inspiration, especially the one that comes from a new vision, isn't leadership! And if you are casting a vision for your organization through inspiration alone, without having strong anchors in systematic and strategic yearly planning, then you truly aren't doing your vision justice. I would go so far to say that you are just being selfish keeping the vision to yourself without having it shared in reality with everyone else. Besides, what is the point of having a vision if you can't penetrate reality and impact those you lead?
