It's taken me YEARS to come to grips with the simple fact that no amount of trying harder was ever going to improve my orientation in the world. Once I did that, though, I could finally start to assess it not only as a personal problem, but as a genuine handicap and the cause of a lot of emotional discomfort and bizarre prejudice.

And THEN I could start looking for solutions like this awesome GPS function on my phone, and actually using it.
