Get it here. It's a really easy and fun read.

Supposedly Richard Branson has ADHD and here's a link to his autobiography: https://www.amazon.com/Losing-My-Virginity-Survived-Business/dp/0307720748/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1492474769&sr=8-1&keywords=richard+branson

However, I would caution against thinking that because someone successful has ADHD that you could become like them just by reading their biography. Focus instead on acquiring skills and building up friendships that will help you enjoy a good middle class lifestyle. If you aim too high you will be setting yourself up for a huge disappointment.

Richard Branson's autobiography Losing my Virginity, Elon Musk, Shoe Dog.

You should read these two books, and get them for him too (audio versions if he prefers that):

So Good They Can't Ignore You - Cal Newport https://www.amazon.com/Good-They-Cant-Ignore-You/dp/1455509124

That is the single best career book I've ever read, and I swear to god I've read them all. This one works for independent-minded people, whether they want to be entrepreneurs or contractors, in a sense, "hack the system" by strategically getting a normal job.

Losing My Virginity - Richard Branson (founder/former CEO of Virgin Records, Virgin Galactic etc.) https://www.amazon.com/Losing-My-Virginity-Survived-Business/dp/0307720748

That one is inspiring because he was a born entrepreneur, a screwup in school, and dyslexic (hence his lack of academic skills).

No.
