I’m very excited about finally making a start at Internet Marketing. It’s been hard work over the last month to concentrate and not drift off "up in the clouds in a dreamworld" - ('Living On My Own' - Freddie Mercury). The more difficult something is, the more I drift off, and I end up reading the same paragraph 16 times!
I’ve read more ebooks, articles, forums and goodness knows what else lately, I’ve been having to take a nap every afternoon because despite having 20/20 vision, all that reading gives me a headache. It’s either my ADHD brain hurting, or it’s psychological!
Actually, I have a theory about glasses. There was a feature on 'Richard and Judy' last year that talked about how people who wear glasses exercise the muscles in their eyes less than those who don’t, so their eyesight inevitibly gets worse.
I was prescribed reading glasses when I was eight years old, and had to wear these little pink framed NHS glasses whenever I read. But I never did – because whenever I wore them I would suffer immense dizziness after only a few minutes. Later I realised I could wear them if I kept my head, and the book, very still. By that I mean I was not allowed to move my head at all – not even an inch (that is nigh on impossible by the way!), or I would get severe dizziness exactly like travel sickness.
So the result was that I had to read without glasses, and thus force my eyes to focus. Did my eyes deteriorate? No – they improved! Actually, I’m not convinced the prescription was even correct. The optician could have presumed I needed glasses when I simply couldn’t be bothered to focus on the eye test!
Well I have to be bothered focusing now - 'I don't have no time for no monkey business...'
