American comedian and actor Jay Leno has said dyslexia helped him work hard for the things he wanted to achieve. "My mother always said to me, since I was dyslexic, ‘You’re going to have to work twice as hard as the other kids to get the same thing.’ I said, ‘OK. That seems fair.’ And I did work twice as hard to get the same thing," Leno recalled.
