He Said WHAT!? Visiting The Daniel Vitalis Podcast
I've been doing recently what people always tell me not to. I've been reading comments about me, on the Internets.Now ... I know what you're thinking. You're thinking, a) Jake I don't care. And perhaps b), who cares what people say. But before you stop reading right here, just stick with me for a moment.

Too much Effort
Written By DespinaContributing OptometristSome days, I just can't be bothered to focus.Maybe I'm tired, hot (33 degrees, 95% humidity), or just plain lazy. I'm quite happy walking around in a slight haze on these days. And everything looks quite nice, I have to say. No mess (kids are back from uni for the summer), no dust, no sand on my floors.

These days there are almost none of those (love [...]

Remember to thumbs it up, leave me your thoughts in the comments (really enjoy comments, feedback, add to my motivation to make more [...]
12th Grader Outwits All Of Modern Optometry
My e-mail seems to be about half and half.Half 'wow this is awesome, thanks for all the things, I'm making progress, Jaaaaake'. Sometimes I post some of them here in the blog, testimony that anyone sufficiently motivated (and patient) can take control over their own eyesight.And then, the other half.I used to wonder quite a bit if I wasn't doing a good enough job with the blog, with those e-mails. I don't have one here to show you (they just [...]
