How I Stopped My Glasses From Slipping Down My Nose
Funny thing, my glasses used to slip and then I got laser eye surgery and then I didn’t have to bother with slipping glasses anymore. Then I got some cool sunglasses and of course when you’re out in the sun, you start sweating and then I found my sunglasses always sliding down my nose. All of a sudden all those years of falling glasses memories returned to me and then I thought to myself, will I never escape the curse of slipping glasses. Unfortunately no one had invented a type of eye surgery where they could give you vision against the sun. Fortunately a neighbor of mine, Doug, we were having a beer together on his porch and he saw that I was forever pushing up my sunglasses and then he said the most incredible thing, why don’t you get yourself some of those Keepons thingys. What are Keepons I asked. He went in the house, took his laptop out to the porch, logged onto his WIFI and showed me by going to a URL called chamightlike.com. The first time I saw these Keepons I knew that my searching was over. This would be the solution to my slipping glasses problem. So I ordered the Keepons lite clears and you know what? They were only $4 and that included free global shipping and a free tracking number so I could check the status of the shipment. When I received them, it took me 15 seconds to put them on my glasses and they hooked over my ears in the most comfortable way. Best thing of all was that my glasses didn’t slide. I jumped up and down, I ran for about fifty meters, I sat down, I got up, I moved my head to the left then I moved my head to the right and nothing. My glasses didn’t slip. I am so happy for Keepons eyeglasses retainers.

Preventing eyeglass slipping with eyeglass retainers, Keepons
I’m giving a talk to a room full of investors right now. These people have money but they’re sharp. Hyperintelligent. I’m on my game, hitting all my points and I see their nodding heads and I know that at the end of my talk, which will happen in about 7 minutes, I have a timer near my foot like the people do on ted.com, that at the end of my talk a lot of people will want to give me their money. I work for a tech company, a startup actually. As I’m giving this talk, my thoughts wander. I shouldn’t let them wander but I can’t help feeling how surreal this all is. Two months ago if you asked me to stand in front of a crowd of multimillionaires and convince them to give me their money I would have told you to go jump in a lake. In fact I was thinking of bringing aboard a partner to do the selling and marketing part. But the person I had in mind, the fit was right and I really couldn’t afford. So I took it upon myself to pitch my own company. But I was always nervous and when I get nervous I sweat and then my glasses keep slipping. But one of my staff suggested I take a look at Keepons eyeglass retainers. I did and immediately I order two pairs. I also ordered them on EMS so that it arrived from Hong Kong in 4 days. And here I am giving this talk and I know I am nailing it. My glasses aren’t slipping. I look intelligent. I’m dressed sharp. Not Wallstreet sharp but silicon valley sharp with jeans, a white collared shirt, and a blazer. I think this will turn out ok and I have to thank Keepons eyewear retainers for that. Who would have ever thought that a tiny piece of silicone could make such a big difference in your life.

Keepons for eyeglasses stops glasses slipping for good
You know what learned helplessness is? It’s like when there’s a problem and the problem is a big problem, but the solution is an easy solution. For most people that is. For you though, it’s a big deal to solve the problem. Sometimes you’re unmotivated. Even the smallest thing is a huge obstacle for you. That’s learned helplessness. And to say there’s something wrong with you it’s untrue, but to suggest you’re making it up, that’s not true either.
The thing is, most likely when you grew up, if there was difficulty you chose to do something else. You convinced yourself that there’s always alternatives. But after a while when you keep taking the left path, you veer farther and farther off course until one day, you so far left that you can’t get right again.
That is becomes a habit to always seek the easiest way. The problem with that is that you problems never go away, they just pile up, blocking your way so that one day you find that your life options are incredibly limited. Then you get depressed and feel even worse and unmotivated.
Sometimes you just have to grin and bear it.
Yes it’s tough taking out your wallet, but do it. Now sure, it’s a lot of work removing your credit card, but go ahead and put it on the table.
Now choose one style of Keepons to help you keep your glasses on. How about the Keepons original clear? They are the most popular style.
Now this is the really really hard part. You have to fill in your address, but don’t worry I’m here with you. Don’t think about how you’ll do everything, that will overwhelm you.
What’s your house number? Great. What about your street name? You’re doing fine. No worries. City? Excellent. Now take a few breaths and relax for a minute or two. You ready? Ok let’s do this. What province or state are you? Then country…
Postal code?
OK, now just click that button.
I know you don’t want to do it because you know even if you click it it will be at least a week or more before it arrives. You’re conditioned such that anything you do must immediately gratify or it’s not worth doing.
Please, you’ll feel better and it’s time to heal.
There great.

There you go, you’ve done fine. The Keepons work great to keep your glasses up and now you can continue to grow.

Please tell me how to stop my glasses from falling down my nose
And once something good happens it can be like a snowball effect. The minute my glasses started NOT to slip anymore because of my Keepons eyeglasses retainers I started having all these ideas. I didn’t really think of them, they just appeared in my head from the new found freedom I was enjoying.
I told myself I was going to start going out more and not be a prisoner in my own home. Which is true since for as long as I remember all I do is go to work, then come home, surf the net and oh yeah spend at least 3 hours a night playing World of Warcraft.
And did I mention I don’t have a girlfriend.
I’m not exactly attractive but since my glasses don’t slip I think I can go a long way to improving how I look.
I’m going to get my haircut and start dressing my age.
My friends tell me I dress like I did in college and even in college I dressed like a kid. I wear shorts everywhere I go, and at work my pants and really baggy and I wear dress runners which are really nice Air Jordans that are in black suede so they don’t look like traditional running shoes.
I don’t know why I’ve been like this, why I’ve refused to grow up. I guess I felt there was nothing to live for, but my Keepons eyeglass retainers have shown me that life is indeed remarkable and it’s time to move on to the next part of the adventure, relationships, travel, maybe finally writing that novel I’ve been saying I would write since grade 5 English class.

Keepons solves the problem of slipping glasses in a scientific way
Could this be the solution not only to my falling glasses but that spark, that catalyst which could change my life?
Perhaps but he did not want to get over-excited because he did not want to jinx it.
But seeing is so important and these glasses always falling make me feel like crap, he thought to himself.
I always feel like a loser, like people can’t accept me.
I wonder if this is self-persecution he thought to himself.
Then the lyrics to Angel by Sarah Mclachlan came into his brain about waiting for that big break to make everything okay. He wanted to google it but couldn’t be bothered.
It had been a hard day, a lot of pointless meetings with bosses who would never get it, that to get people to be really efficient all you had to do was follow two simple rules. Be nice to them, really nice and not fake nice. And let them work on stuff that they’re really passionate about instead of micro-managing them.
That and let them listen to music while they work like the Seven Little Dwarves whistling while they worked. He giggled at that.
After that first time, he went back to the chamightlike.com site every now and then. He was the world’s biggest procrastinator.
Perhaps I don’t deserve to get my life straightened out.
Maybe this is just what I need because if things go well, hubris will derail me.
A friend of his had once suggested that he was a Narcissist in the clinical sense.
So he went to Wikipedia and looked it up and yup it fit him.
