You might be new to the idea that you're beginning to lose your hair. Or you might have been wrestling with this knowledge for some time. Either way, you know how aggravating it can be. In my case, discovering my own hair loss was like facing the death of a dear friend. The grief that I felt was real, and matched up pretty closely with the grief one might realize given any great loss. Here are a few of the stages that I went through - see if they sound familiar:
* Denial. "This can't be happening to me!" This was my reaction the first time I noticed hair in the sink, or a bunch around the drain in the shower, or more on my pillow in the morning than I could ignore. These signs might have been easy enough to ignore for a while, but then a spouse, sibling or child notices my receding hairline, or the bald spot emerging on the top of my head. Then denial quickly becomes panic, and then...
* Anger. Who or what can I blame this on? It must be something I've been eating. Or work - there's so much stress and pressure at work, I'm sure that's it. Damn work! It's just so unfair that I have to face the reality of going through life bald while others blissfully take for granted their full heads of hair! I was mad at everyone! It's so irrational, and this period was short for me. The best part was that, as my anger subsided I was led to the most productive phase of my grief...
* Bargaining. Aha - the most fruitful stage! "What can I do to stop this from happening to me?" If you are asking yourself this question, then the first answer that you should come to is that a visit to your physician is in order. It's unlikely that you'll find a good solution here, but you can rule out poor health as a cause, which might give you some comfort. This, by the way, is the stage where I first began to familiarize myself with the hundreds of products for hair loss that are on the market today. I tried as many as I could possibly get my hands on - none seemed to work, and so slowly I slipped into...
* Depression. "Say good-bye to a healthy head of hair." Nothing would work for me. It had been about fourteen months since it was first pointed out to me that I was definitely losing my hair, and I couldn't find anything to even slow it down, much less reverse the loss I had already realized. I was stuck with it, and so would have to move on, finally, to...
* Acceptance. "And here I find peace." But it's not that simple. You see, once I was relieved of the burden of trying to return to my past condition, with a full head of hair, I began to relax and investigate with more patience how I might learn to live with this new condition. In passing back through the many hair loss products that I had tried in the bargaining stage, I did so with more diligence and patience, and finally found a product that, when given enough time, did indeed stop my hair loss, and did indeed reverse hair loss. Only when I stopped thrashing and struggling to find a solution did that solution come to me.
There are lots of hair loss products to choose from, and many make outrageous claims of success in every hair loss case. Every person is different, and so different solutions work for different people. The one that I found that worked for me then and continues to work for me today is Provillus. It's available over-the-counter, and contains the leading hair loss solution recommended by the FDA - the one responsible for the regrowth of hair in millions of individuals. Provillus works for the widest cross-section of individuals, and it might work for you. If you're searching for a way to stop your own hair loss, try Provillus. There's a good chance it will change your life.
The Stages Of Grief
Getting turned down in every application is always kinda hard to take in, especially if you worked really hard for that endeavor. As just in the case of high risk businesses, such as adult, dating service, escort, escort service, telemarketing, travel, high volume, and multilevel marketing, reading the mark , ?denied? on the merchant account application is totally unfortunate.
Let's incorporate the K'bler-Ross model of the five stages of grief to the agony merchants face when their applications are rejected:
Denial ? It can't be happening
After all you've been through, making sure that the all the requirements were submitted, together with the original and photocopies, coming in wearing your best suit and even a new haircut, just to impress the financial officer, waiting for like six weeks to get a mere yes or no, you get a denied application. You ask, ?this can't be, I did everything right??.
Yes you did, it was just not in the right place.
Anger - Why ME? It's not fair?!
At this stage, you ask yourself, why you were singled out? At this stage, you pin the blame on someone, even on God, business partner, the bank, the bank officer, and yourself. It'll be relieving to know if you can know the reasons:
documentary deficiencies
grave complaint record filed to the Better Business Bureau (BBB)
ripoff record
misrepresenting certain, if not, all information about yourself and your business
Bargaining ? Just let me try it out even for a month or so..
This is a natural emotion, after a rejection, you tend to fight more even though you're hurting inside. You offer your business or your house or any other property s collateral, all in exchange of another chance.
In most cases, you can't offer any collateral or insurances if you have been denied. This only happens when it's a done deal.
Depression - I'm so sad, why bother with anything?
At this point, after exhausting all efforts to reconcile, you tend to love solitude and avoid seeing or talking to other people. Even to the point that you have lost the will to run your business.
Your business is one of the good things you have, why fail in it as well.
Acceptance - It's going to be OK.
This is the moment where you will have an epiphany that rejections are but a part of life. You have entertained all the feelings that you should, all are natural to experience. You have come to terms that being turned down is not the end, it's only the beginning.
Blessing in disguise
You have overcome the stages of grief. Time to heal those wounds. Be courageous to go outside the state line, so to speak, have your business stamped with an offshore merchant account.
Applying for an offshore merchant account for your business is easier and faster. They are especially accommodating to business with a high risk nature. But, remember that even if they are less strict, you have to be secure in your application. Make sure that all the requirements are intact, settle any disputes with your costumers and other affiliates. Start clean and fresh with your offshore merchant account.
