Growth Mindset – Believing You Can Improve! 

https://youtu.be/qu6MWKMbAWk

Today I have a special guest named Greg Wood. He is an entrepreneur but also holds down a full-time job. He shares his story about being diagnosed with dyslexia very early on, being held back in first grade, and the support he received from his mom and teachers. He went on to college and completed his BA in Physical Education. He used his degree to be a director at the arena or similar places. He's interested in running sports or programs for kids or a community.

Some of his teachers didn’t support him in middle school and he wasn’t prepared in high school for college. But he made it. One of his middle school principals said he’d never amount to anything. But Greg is proving him and others wrong. I believe this interview will inspire you whether you are dyslexic or have dyslexic kids. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Dyslexia – A Trait of Genius Forty percent of self-made millionaires in the United States are dyslexic. Thirty-five percent of entrepreneurs in the United States are dyslexic. Alexander Graham Bell, Steven Spielberg, Walt Disney, Henry Ford, and Leonardo Da Vinci all had Dyslexia. I am saddened when I see kids fail in school because of an empowering thing like reading because dyslexic children struggle with reading. I believe if an environment would embrace reading, we would open up a world of opportunity for dyslexic people.
