I am dyslexic, abused called lazy. At 22 a boss said I think your are dyslexic, went to NYC to the Orton society. And learned 3 reading to 6 grade and platoed because of mental blocks from abuse. Forms are my nightmare. I need up on disability becouse of my back . And after 5 years I went over, I had confused weekly pay from monthly, or yearly, some mounth I made 0 and other months I made 1200. And I was over. They took my disability away, I felt lost, and lost hope and ended in the hospital with a nervous breakdown, with help I did get a lawer and did get it back. I had to sell my beloved home that saved me as a child. . I worked from 16 as a lifeguard, and in pre press for 20 years. I am skilled finding how to put things together, finding things, was good at art, but my main focus was always how to survive.. Th a no you for making this a point to help people understand the "how" the how is what got me through and being thankful for what I have.

🎉 "I am finally going to university!" Richard Branson, at 74, you’ve managed to inspire us all yet again—this time with a bit of humour and a whole lot of wisdom—sparking a movement to reimagine education and embrace the brilliance of Dyslexic Thinking.

Not just a speech; it’s a rallying cry for all of us to rethink how we learn, grow, and harness our unique strengths. And honestly, who better to deliver it than someone who has spent a lifetime proving that thinking differently is the ultimate superpower? 🔥

It’s insightful, inspiring, and yes, sprinkled with that classic Branson charm. 🌟😂
Let’s all take a page from his book: dream big, think differently, and never stop laughing along the way. #DyslexicThinking #NeverTooLate #DreamBig

I have dyslexia and this initiative doesn’t really seem very helpful. It’s just a couple of hour long courses about how great dyslexia is - with successful people patting each other’s backs to smooth over the chips in their shoulders for doing poorly in school. Something more tangible like a campaign for education reform, or grants for dyslexic students would’ve been better. This whole thing is just PR for Branson.
