There is a story about a man who could not get a newly purchased mule to do anything at all. Completely frustrated, he asked the previous owner of the mule to help him. The first action of the former owner was to pick up a large board and hit the mule squarely between the eyes, staggering the mule noticeably. In reply to the new owner's protest, the man stated that the first move to overcome the problem was to "get the mule's attention."
Sometimes we need to be "hit between the eyes" to get our attention. An experience I recently had illustrates this point vividly.
