    OHG! At 62 I'm only just realising how my dyslexia was my disadvantage. For example, at just 16 my first job was operating a machine to cut letters out at a sign company. My inquisitive mind meant I found ways to cut letters much smaller than it's spec - we got orders from all over the country due to this (they didn't tell me until I decided to leave - I was apparently trebbling my wages within three weeks). I failed the basic literacy test to join the army but on my third attempt, despite failing again, I was let me in due the recruitment sergeant liking my tenacity. . My solution focused mind got me promoted quickly. Thing is this meant I had to put notices up and queues would form to laugh at my spelling. I decided to find other ways to spell and developed a system I now call Lan-gu-ag-E. I took one qualification after another and ended up doing an Industrial Design degree (the only student to leave with two UK patients registered). Took a teaching course and, in my first job found ways of making life easier for teachers (these projects were sold all over the country). Had a breakdown after a car accident nearly killed me and my family . Got back into work as a CEO bringing a product to market. I'm now starting another business producing hundreds of videos on how to spell from a dyslexic's perspective. If ever there was a story of struggling with dyslexia but using it's advantages to succeed then my life examples it perfectly.

    I’m in my 30’s and it STILL takes me HOURS to fill out forms & complete assignments. I’ve never had the help or support that I really needed. I’ve always been left alone to deal with my neurodiversities. 💔 Because of Adulting, added responsibility, the pressure to be successful, and all the stresses of being an adult in general and juggling personal life, work LIVE(S), community life, and life events/stages; I definitely experience situations where my Dyslexia/ADHD/OCD/SPS symptoms become worse and more pronounced.

    Answer began "In terms of executive functioning" Is this functioning a dynamic process? The English language is linear. Have you tried using a dynamic language to transmit dynamic process? For example a the flock of birds wheeling around in space to suggest what the executive function may be doing? .

    Hello I have been listening to the Dyslexic Advantage Book for several years. I have completed chapter 4 or 5.; 4 or 5 times. I don't feel pressure to complete the book, so I let myself react, remember, connect past events good and sad, rewrite my internal stories and more recently identify when I leaned into my big picture. For example I have written papers published by the National Academy of Science. I have trouble reading what I wrote. I really cannot read out loud what I wrote. But I can speed read complex text; forget most of the stuff and grab the core message. I was blessed with family, teachers and mentors, especially from 1 -20 years, who expected me to do things I liked and do things I did not find interesting. I believe my super power is not being afraid of the pain of failure. Thank you for the work you are doing.

    Electrostatic field reversed dimension 8 gold energy. I think electricity is a dirty energy that is slowly killing the planet and us. Studies show that when electricity was introduced into Society a number of different illnesses started to appear it is very troublesome when you think that the electric car is coming out and it is hidden the truth that energy can actually be taken from the atmosphere free energy devices have been repressed we know the reasons why but I think it is going to hit a few nerves when people really understand that electricity is anything but good for the environment Tesla and a few other scientists around the same time were members of a secret group called ultra Plus they were experimenting and learning Harnessing plasma energy the real kicker is people don't want to listen and because the higher ups say it's ok I did a video about this kind of stuff years ago and a few of them got taken down I wonder why.

      Does this woman understand google has been around for a while now? That's already a spell checker if you've ever bothered to type in a word in a search engines during the last 20-25 years. I often hear dyslexic people say this stupid shit. But I always have to point out o them to simply Google a word or sentence first. Even tthe simplest words...........oh well, can't remember how to do it. So i guess that's that. int he meantime being glued to their mobile phones with tthe entire internet at their disposal.

    "Reflecting on my school years in a small island classroom, I'm flooded with mixed emotions, but nostalgia isn't one of them. For me, school is far from a safe haven of learning and growth. It feels more like a battlefield, navigating a world where being different isn't just challenging; it's isolating. Coming from a less affluent background paints a target on my back, subjecting me to unwarranted judgment and exclusion. But what's even more challenging is dealing with my learning disability in an environment that's less than accommodating. It's hard to put into words the feeling of being seen as 'less than' by my peers and, sadly, sometimes even by those who are supposed to educate and uplift us. My learning disability isn't a choice, nor does it reflect my intelligence or my worth as a person. Yet, it often feels like a curse, overshadowing my abilities and ambitions.

    I’m dyslexic I’m in my 50s now, dyslexia wasn’t something that was considered when I was at school, so I left School at the age of 16 illiterate convinced I was extremely unintelligent, by pure chance I went to a very basic English night class type of class where you learn to write your name there I met a PhD student who was doing research into dyslexia and for the next two years I was his guinea pig so to speak, but at the end of it I could read and write, then went onto college, then university qualifying as an engineer, and have a very successful career. Like this guy said in this video, although I’ve learned to compensate but peoples names just don’t stick.

    A good way to remember names is to link the name to something you know about the person... if you know they bought a Ring and their name is Rachel you keep saying Rachel Ring ... Or think of something ridiculous like if their name is Dina and they bought the ring... Dina dances with dinosaurs that wear rings.

    Absolutely true! My son worked in customer service at a major organization. He wasn’t meeting the metrics in the beginning but ended up designing his own solution to automate the process and consequently picked up. However, the manager was not empathetic and terminated him without cause in spite of informing her that he was neurodivergent. It is a shame and demoralizing.

    I have severe Dyslexia. I can't even spell Dyslexia without voice recognition. it has limited my life in so many ways. to NEVER be able to express your self or point of view fully in text, email, letters or even a post-it. not being able to write a grocery list. copy down a phone number. leave a note for someone. take notes for work. write down anything ever in a legible manner. not to mention having to read things 10 times over to absorb through osmosis the meaning of the words. never being able to do multiplication in your head, long division, calculus, coding. Always Writing the number 4 whenever you intend to write an uppercase L? I know how embarrassing it is when someone see, catching you. I have been in tears many times just trying to do what everyone else can do without thinking about it. throughout my many years of agony, yes Manny Years of agony, I come from the stupid ages before the internet, personal computers and cell phones. I have learned two important things 1 you should not give a flying 💩 about what other people think of you and 2 voice recognition helps. Use technology and any and all means to achieve what you deserve in this life. Dyslexics are very intelligent people you are just different.
