   Back when I was a college tutor, I had a couple of students try the “I can’t do my homework, I have ” line with me. My response was always the same: "I’m a traumatic brain injury survivor who had to relearn how to read in my second year of high school. I have dyslexia, memory issues, and acquired ADHD. And I’m a straight 4.0, so don’t give me the “I can’t” line."

It’s more than just difficulty reading; it also comes with superb spacial reasoning and the ability to mentally rearrange the world around you. That’s why a number of great artists and engineers were dyslexic. It isn’t in spite of the dyslexia…it’s actually because of it!
