The 47-year-old actor - who raises six children with partner Angelina Jolie - has a "psychological defect" which means he won`t rectify a mistake once he realises what has happened. His "defect" even affects small aspects of his day like missing a turning when he is driving. He told Empire magazine: "If I`m walking out of the door and I`ve forgotten something I can`t go back and get it. It is something in my nature. "If I`m driving down the road and I miss a turn, I have to keep going forwards. I can`t reverse. It`s some kind of psychological defect. I don`t know the reason why. I don`t like to go backwards. It`s just not what I`m good at." The `Moneyball` star admits he has always behaved in the same way, and is focus on the next thing hindered his sporting career at school. Brad - who was previously married to Jennifer Aniston - added: "In high school I played all the sports. I went from one to the other. I played football. I wrestled one year. I was on the diving team one year. I played tennis. I did basketball and I was capable at all of it but I wasn`t great at any of it. "Maybe if I had stuck with one I could have been great. But it`s just that, for better or worse, I want to keep moving on."
