We all just need the proper motivation.

We need to stop pretending that correct spelling comes easier to others than ourselves: it always takes effort. The word dyslexic means - 'I'm never going to try because I will always fail'. It's a useless word. A very destructive word.

Spelling is like dieting. There are no quick fixes and there is no excuse for not trying.
This probably sounds as retarded as it is, but are there any like "exercises" I can to do work at it. Alot of the time I spell a word wrong but don't see it until someone points it out to me. This being bacause I read letters backwards so it looks right when its wrong. Is there anything that can be done about it that I can work on myself?

Spelling wise I do try my best, taking forever, but I am trying
