There is a way of reprogramming what the mind believes. A willingness to experience differently and choosing thoughts carefully will craft a new experience. Allow the learning process to take you farther than where you were.

Whether it is dealing with an ailment or a new phase of life, changes require an extra effort for adjustment. Whatever is faced, I intend to meet the required self=care with appreciation rather than resignation. I respect that what happens is a contribution to my development. I accept the responsibility for my self-care.

 My life experience taught me to focus on something to learn rather than feed negative reactions.Sensing change, it is better to flow with the situation instead of resisting or trying to get my way. Allowing life to guide me, I choose to appreciate the moment and make the best of it. Reflecting on the situation can be done after the process has completed.

Being aware of change and trusting that I don’t have to know, success is in my ability to experience what is happening. Accepting whatever comes my way reminds me that I am a part of something greater. Continuous growth makes challenges into wonders to discover.

Letting go of the need to control a situation clears my mind, allowing me to fully embrace the process. When I release preconceived ideas, the experience transforms into an adventure that I value.

 I used to be afraid of getting accused of giving up but then I realized that I can’t avoid the truth. Getting to know what is an illusion and what is real gives me the strength to embrace my reality. Choosing my wheelchair and embracing my disability is my way of loving myself and stopping the actions that deny my truth. There is more to a book beyond the cover you see.

Reaction is an inevitable part of an experience. It is a personal responsibility to recognize them and align our actions with ourselves. As what I think and feel become the expression of my person, it's my job to tend to what I grow. I choose what I become by nourishing the thoughts that align with me.

 Accepting that change happens continuously and that I am a part of something greater, it is easier to adapt my plans and pay attention to life’s subtle guidance. Without thinking of change with a negative viewpoint, every effort to adjust is a growth opportunityI had not expected and am free to appreciate.

 I know that people are human beings struggling with who they are in the life they live. I recall my experience as a teenager living with epilepsy at a time when epilepsy was hardly known. Despite my unique experience, it was not different from other people's experiences. Perspective helps me to recognize how human I am, despite my differences.

Reflecting on knowledge that wasn’t available thirty years ago and coming to terms with my truth. What happened can’t be changed and I am grateful that it never broke me. I can embrace the truth and discover where it takes me.

 The journey to achieve greatness often distracts me from remembering that I am human and still developing. Perceiving what doesn’t go my way as reminders and lessons presents hope for more to come.

 Reflecting on the importance of perspective in adverse situations and being conscious of what to carry away from a situation. It is in how we choose to nurture our perceptions that leads to our reality.

 Reflecting on what my experience with seizure recoveries taught me. Acceptance and a willingness to learn turned adversity into blessings.

When I perceive an opposition as a sign for change, I don’t stay frustrated because I see it as an opportunity to grow. What could have been an annoyance evolves into a blessing as I openly flow with the experience. Failure is never a hindrance when I’m discovering more!

Perseverance is not only a response to adversity, it is a deliberate choice to accept what I encounter. Choosing perseverance is my key to growth and enjoyment!

 Reflecting on a mantra that sustains me through challenges.

Reflecting on the realization of the experience that is the root of who I am.

Reflecting on the beauty of awakening and anticipating the Spring season.

Sharing a constant battle that I must face in order to learn as my present self.

Believing is the first step to becoming. Focus on your intention and know your why to keep growing with the changes.
