(And, this is my short list).Do you ever wonder what makes a person listen? What qualities make one’s message heard and understood? Even before the understanding process can begin you have to be heard and we simply don’t hear everything around us. Just like elevator music, we tune out sounds that are without variety, inflection, and interest. To capture someone’s attention you have to put interest into the rhythm of your sound.We communicate everyday, with many people in equally as many ways. Indeed, communication can be over I hate drugs and I try very hard to keep them out of my body. For example, for five years I was either pregnant or nursing so I knew the whole “What class is this drug in?” drill. Unfortunately, there’s a time and place for everything. To help manage my physical and “mental” pain, I had to wean my baby right after my car accident, so I can try some of these "Wonder Drugs". [Note: My doctors prefer that I acknowledge my “neurological” pain. I developed an inner ear disorder (benign vertigo and post concussive syndrome) due to whipping my head around. I do not have any “mental” problems. I guess they're right, because “Psycho-Ponn” existed long before my accident :-)] Lessons Learned From Taking the Infamous Vioxx. Tips Every Entrepreneur Should Apply to Their Business: • If it’s too good to be true…it is. I hated what Vioxx and what other hard-core pain killers like Percocet did to me: they’d be knocked out.

Years ago, one family member was addicted (in my opinion) to Vioxx when they had knee surgery, and another one said he couldn’t bare his back pain without this "wonder drug". I was suspicious way back then. • Listen to yourself…even if the “professionals” say it’s Okay and Test. I’m seeing so many different doctors, that I’m accustomed to asking, “Are you sure I can take these together? Even though one says “can cause dizziness” and the other says “to prevent dizziness”?

If you’re not getting the answers you want, you need to do the research yourself. I wouldn't have taken care of my benign vertigo if I relied on what I was told rather than what I learned through my own efforts. • Limit yourself & Find Moderation. Don’t wait for your doc to say “taking too much Naproxyn & Ibruprofen can give your liver damage…it’s time for a new drug”. Too much of anything is bad for you. Finding alternatives to a bad thing is not always a good-thing either. I have non-drug days and all-drug days. Just find your happy-medium. • Believe in yourself. I don’t care how many people don’t believe in you (even your loved ones), or how many annoying remarks or huffs you get. If you know in your heart that you can be better…be prepared to walk this road alone. • Never give up. Be heard and build your power network. Now, that you’re listening, educating, testing, limiting, and believing in yourself…hang in there…you will be heard. I would’ve never seen the “specialists”, if I didn’t tell my story a million times. You need to work your way to the people who already believe in you and your mission.
