Speedlinking – July 14, 2007

  1. How to Describe Medical Symptoms to Your Doctor – Helpful. Tactical. Great post from wikiHow.
  2. What do you do when a crisis hits? Steven Furtick articulates three different responses in Urgency vs. Panic.
  3. There is a great deal of value to Personal Journals as well as blogs – posted at Step by Step. I was good at this discipline for years, but not as much in the past several.
  4. It’s the best I’ve got… at Seth Godin’s blog is a short and profound post about using the resources that you have at your disposal.
  5. At History in the Making, Ben writes about Leadership Learned or Inherited giving highlights from an article addressing the source of leadership.

Hey, I was watching this Dateline thing months ago, and it was about Doctors… maybe it was CBS Evening News because for some reason I remember Katie Couric… anyhow (is that her name?) anyway, there were doing a story about how doctors make a diagnosis in their head within 18 seconds of hearing you talk. so they advise the patient to keep asking questions, even at the risk at annoying the doctor.
The doctor they were mainly interviewing (and wrote a book about the topic) once said that this lady came in to see her. he could not stand her voice at ALL, and said it was worse than nails being scratched against a chalkboard. she complained about her throat being sore, so tuning the rest of her complaints out, he diagnosed her with just a sore throat. turns out, it was throat cancer, and by the time they realized it, it was too late to save her.
yikes.
so good looking out with that link.
