[QUOTE="little_p, post: 7856434, member: 66368"] I find that jobs where a 'visual thinker' is needed is where I excel. Examples on a livestock farm include seeing how a hedge is going to be laid, a stone wall is going to be built, how a fence is going to go up, how to work out a field on tractor work. Maybe even having a 'stockman's eye' better than some non-dyslexics. Generally 'seeing' how a job is going to go. I get around the poor memory by always carrying a small note pad and pen, making list after list, using the voice recorder on my phone and taking photos as reminders. The way to get around my dyspraxia is practice at those hand eye co-ordination. Being brought up on a farm and having early introduction to throttles, levers, triggers, tools has helped. Never really found a way to get around the poor spacial awareness. [/QUOTE]
