Is there a tldr?

With the power of AI

Here's a TLDR of your text:

ADHD brains are well-suited to tech jobs. They thrive on the variety and urgency of IT work.
Success requires balance. You can't rely on high-stress situations to focus long-term.
Your experience is your asset. Learn to translate your instincts into process improvements others can understand.
You'll need new skills. Develop time management and task completion skills to progress.
Other ADHD-friendly careers exist. Consider EMTs, kitchen staff, or machine operators where focus and pattern recognition are key.
