Your child doesn’t need more discipline. They need the right method for how their mind works.
«How to Study When Your Mind Runs Too Fast» is the first study-skills book written directly for teens with ADHD, not about them. A complete system covering environment, attention, method, and exam day, explained in their own language.
It’s not a capability problem. It’s a method problem
You see a capable kid who can’t perform on exams, no matter how hard they try. The frustration builds on both sides, yours and theirs, and most study guides were never built for a mind that runs at a different speed.
What’s usually out there
Generic study advice, built for an ideal student who rarely exists. Or behavior-focused guides aimed at the parent, that give the teen no tool they can actually use themselves.
What this book offers
A complete, actionable system, written in the second person directly to the teen. Concrete, timed protocols, no childish exercises and no magic promises.
A real system, not a list of loose tips
Every chapter delivers a concrete protocol, with clear steps and, where it applies, a set time. Here are some of the systems the book builds.
The focus sprint
Short study blocks, individually timed, to work with attention as it actually behaves, not against it.
The priority matrix
Gold, silver, bronze, and active discard. A clear method for deciding what to study when time is running out.
The return ritual
Four steps to get back to studying after a distraction, with no guilt and without losing the whole session.
A complete path, from mindset to exam day
Understand why the mind runs fast, and how to work with it, not against it.
Solve the distractions that break every study session.
Apply the techniques that actually improve performance.
Walk into the exam with a concrete plan for the final days.
Published by Ediciones Kivarai, an independent imprint of practical books for real situations. No unnecessary theory, no empty promises.
Why trust this book?
L. Villaescusa holds a degree in Psychology, has lived with ADHD since childhood (diagnosed in adulthood), and has closely supported the learning of his own children with the same condition.
That combination of professional knowledge and personal experience makes this book a practical, realistic guide, built for people who need results, not theory.
Because it was written by someone who understands ADHD from every angle.
Give them the tool they need, not more theory
