For people with ADHD it's very difficult to stay focused. And with our phones and social media available 24/7 it's even more difficult. That's why I created a system that literally doesn't allow me to use muy phone for more than a certain amount of time per day.

Social media can definitely be a good tool. That's how I met most of my best friends. But you need to know how to use it, ESPECIALLY if you have ADHD and it's difficult for you to focus and get easily distracted.

Growing up dyslexic and with ADHD wasn't always easy, that's why I created systems to make my life easier when it comes to handling thing that are outside of my control.

In this video I talk about my thoughts on social media addiction, why it could ruin your life and most importantly how to overcome it, especially if you suffer from ADH and/or Dyslexia.

Hi, I'm Cliff Weitzman.

I am dyslexic.

‍Reading a sentence takes me the same amount of energy and brain power as most people take when solving a four digit long division math equation in their head.

I taught myself how to code and built a software that would read books to me. It's called Speechify! I spent 4 years in college perfecting this system. Instead of slaving over a textbook while chained to my desk - I’d take 15 quick photos and then listen while eating breakfast or going to class.

Today, tens of millions of people have been able to function in school and society because of Speechify.

Remember, that above all else, your mission is to be who you needed most when you were growing up. At least, it’s mine.

Much love ❤️
