Return to Unique Discoveries I Found After Becoming Disabled

<h2>Unique Discoveries I Found After Becoming Disabled</h2>by RickLondonIt seems like another lifetime ago that I was living in Washington, D.C., working in corporate America, waking up at 6 am, rushing with my coffee while I brushed my teeth and put on my pinstripe suit and yellow power tie, and drove to work, arriving before rush hour. Only to be more anxious at the end of the day. That was my life, day in and day out. After a major heart attack, a burst appendicitis, a dysfunctional vagus nerve (requiring an implant) and a myriad of other health problems, I was put on the corporate sidelines, and, doctors said I would not be working again. I was only forty years old. Now I was a person with a label. No longer was that label "corporate executive. It was "disabled". I did not buy the term. I bought a cheap computer and learned all I could about the Internet. I learned how to be a cartoonist and writer. I learned how to outsource and license the manufacturing of my image products. I became an entrepreneur within a few years, and a disabled one at that. Then I built the largest and most visited independent offbeat cartoon site on the Internet with eight stores. Then I decided to go back to school and learn business and technology and did so online (at an accredited university). I then invented a new fully-computerized medical device. I let the government know of my activities, yet they simply ignored my suggestion that maybe a disability is not a disability at all. If one really wants to do something, it can be done. I have discussed my ability to accomplish with many other so-called disabled persons, and have discovered many similar stories. I am certainly not a hero nor even unique. Many have made accomplishments that I only hope to come close to doing. Which brings me to the whole issue of labeling. What is so productive about labeling? I have been ten times more productive as a "disabled person" than when I was "fully functional" (pushing and signing papers mostly), in corporate America. It is truly something to think about.<h3>About the Author</h3>Cartoonist and entrepreneur Rick London owns the largest and most visited cartoon site on the Internet Londons Times Cartoons and nine stores.
