Same - for me the leading indicator of having "true" ADD is the inability to concentrate on the things I _want_ to do. I recently chatted with a shrink who said that ADD patients typically _can_ focus on the things they want to do but struggle with the things they don't want to do. I strongly suspect he's mistaken - I don't know a soul who finds it easy to focus on filing their taxes (except sadistic accountant-type friends). Nothing is more frustrating than having all the "motivation" and desire and curiosity for a task but none of the "ability" to make it happen.
