FTI

FTI...... Fail To Implement!!! The three deadliest words to something NEW that is out of our comfort zone. So how are those New Year Resolutions? How is the Headache Journal?
Most fail because the goal is overwhelming. So keep the big goal, but break it down into smaller achievable goals. Example: Headache journal. First, get a journal, or pad of paper and a pen or some other tool that works for you that you can write things down and review later. I know it sounds silly but getting started is usually the biggest obstacle. Then start thinking of the things that you were doing right before your headache Like foods, activities, smells, even people, You can start narrowing the list latter, it is important to get started. If you don't start seeing similarities , then you can start looking further in the past prior to the headache. Remember we are trying to rule out the easy factors first. Sometimes it can be as simple as food or perfume.
For those of you that have already started, disregard the above and great job! How's it going? Sometimes you can find something in as little as a week depending on how many headaches you are having. Keep up the good work. Any questions can always be e-mailed to me at drpoe@billpoedds.com or consult your Physician or another qualified Neuromuscular Dentist.
Until next time,
Dr. Poe
