Everybody knows how hard it can be to manage dyslexia at work. Some dyslexics struggle to strike a healthy work-life balance since reading and writing take more time and energy than other tasks. There is a problem with mental tiredness, and job can sometimes be extremely demanding. You might still discover the perfect balance, though.
Utilise assistive technologies.
For those who struggle with dyslexia, assistive technology has the potential to completely alter the game. You could be thinking, "I already do this," but are you keeping up with the quick technological changes? Even while most of us are familiar with the fundamentals—like Microsoft's spell check—have you considered using Grammarly or another tool to improve your language, sentence structure, and spelling? How about using voice-to-text software instead of typing or handwriting what you say? Text-to-speech software is an additional option that reads printed materials aloud. You can lessen the amount of time that dyslexia may make you feel frustrated by using these resources.
Establish realistic goals!
It's important to set reasonable expectations for oneself because dyslexia might increase the difficulty or duration of some tasks. Avoid packing too much or performing too many tasks in one day. If you know that you require more time than your friends and colleagues to do certain chores, it could be simpler to exercise self-compassion.
Put your own needs first.
You are aware of my strong view that everyone, but especially those who battle with dyslexia, has to take care of themselves. Because dyslexia can harm your mental and emotional well-being, take care of yourself by making time for relaxing and stress-relieving activities like meditation or exercise. It is good for your health to schedule activities you enjoy and get enough sleep. Listening to podcasts and meditating at night improves my sleep quality.
