Before turning the financial advice company HighTower Advisors into a company with 35 billion dollars in assets and 500 employees, Elliot Weissbluth worked diligently to find a way to cope with his dyslexia. His first success in dealing with dyslexia was forbidding himself to multi task, choosing to focus on one job at a time.
Elliot Weissbluth overcame dyslexia to be successful by focusing on single-tasking.
Weissbluth encourages other people with dyslexia to look for gifts in the steps they use to overcome dyslexia. For example, he used a typewriter in grade school because he couldn’t read his own writing. As a result, he became familiar with computers very quickly and soon became an expert on them.
