How adult ADHD diagnosis led Dr. George Sachs on the path to success in his career

I was laid off. 9/11 happened, I ended a relationship. I was 28 or 29. And I realised that I wasn’t having success, a lot of my other friends in their 20s were achieving success. I don’t mean big success, but just traction in their job. They were moving up being promoted. And I was not and this was before I had realised I had ADHD. But I was really struggling to make it as in any career. And now I was approaching 30, and I really had to do some self analysis.

The digital marketing career change that shaped my life. From Banking to Online Advertising at Google, Yahoo and Verizon

My first job was as a Bank Clerk in Lisbon. I still remember the branch manager being very surprised and wanting to talk to my mom once I told her that I wanted to quit. It was very kind of her to do that because she also had kids my age and didn’t want me to make a wrong decision that I would later regret. But it was nevertheless funny that she wanted to talk to the mom of a grown-up man.
