Oh man, you are totally speaking my language. A lot of this was exactly me when I was a kid. Even still today. I spent so much time in the hall or sitting against the wall during recess. I remember in 4th grade we had a pet rabbit in the class. Because of my condition, they moved my desk to the corner and that just happened to be the corner where the rabbit would always pee and poop. I did above average in school (A's and B's), but I wonder how well I might have done if I had been able to focus. I don't feel like I have those moments of brilliance, but I do suffer from putting off things when I think they are going to be hard. Like you, I also feel that I know a little bit about a lot of things, but I don't really feel like I am a master of any one thing. My wife is a school counselor and she has looked at my old report cards. She has said that I definitely would have been visiting her a lot if they had known what ADD and ADHD was back then. She often uses me as an example to her parents and students of how you can be successful despite the struggles. My mind is in so many places at once most of the time. My wife will often ask me how I got talking about something in particular. Once I back track the thought process she can totally see it, but knowing how I got from a conversation on horses to one about cheese isn't clear to her (obviously).
