Bruce Jenner -Dyslexia is gold




Those Kardashians are SO famous.  But in this post it’s not Kim or Chloe or Courtney, or any of the lead players I want to mention, but the quieter, supportive minor-player, Bruce Jenner. 

Not strictly speaking a Kardashian, not a headline-maker either, Bruce Jenner is nevertheless an Olympic medalist.  That’s right, Olympic medalist! In 1976, in Montreal, he took gold in the decathlon.  Maybe you already knew that though.  -But did you know that Bruce has dyslexia?  If you’re thinking how hard dyslexia is to live with, take a look at how he sees it:

‘If I wasn’t dyslexic, I probably wouldn’t have won the Games.  I never would have realized that the way you get ahead in life is through hard work.’
