The power of change.

I have always been a conscientious  student, so at my school & college, I worked hard to hear every word the teachers said. I arrived early to position myself in a good seat that had clear sight lines for lipreading . I concentrated, I listened actively, and I took notes to solidify the concepts into my notebook for later review. It was not that effective and  also exhausting.

When I was exhausted, I got a strange idea that "I should try to hear less,” . “The most important information will be repeated multiple times. Focus on that, not on getting every detail. Hearing everything would only wear me down.” But I had a thought that  I could do what everyone else could do?  because of my hearing loss I should lower the high expectations I had for myself to learn the material? That I should not expect to absorb the information as well as the students with typical hearing? That I was not capable of taking the class on my own terms? (1/n)
