I smiled as I heard that the founding father of Singapore, Mr Lee Kuan Yew, loved an uncluttered desk to work on. I understand where that came from.
I have a neurological make-up that is unlike others too, and an empty table, at least within an angular scope of 150 degrees with my nose as the vertex, on which to put the material I need, works best for me.
Mr Lee has no doubt made the best use of what others call, out of ignorance, a disorder. The brain that caused him to see floating, reversed lettering also enabled him to connect the dots differently.
Like all other areas of weaknesses, Mr Lee had learnt to harness the best of Dyslexia and manage the excess neurological activities to execute the best in everything he did.
Although there is little correlation between Dyslexia and intelligence, the fact that Mr. Lee had overcome his difficulties showed that he had the intelligence to cope with his so-called setback.
