The Best Way to Change My Life

TL;DR - You and I are going to go on a journey. Is it a journey of 1%. We are going to make our lives 1% better per day. Do you know what that means? That means that in 3 1/2 months our lives are going to be 100% better.

I'm gonna be honest, life was hard.

There's a lot of things that were hard about it that I won't be discussing here and now, but I will definitely share about my health.

In 2012 I fell down the stairs twice, and they found out that most of the muscles in my lower back had atrophied - they were never going to come back. (I have limbe girdle muscular dystrophy, but it took 6 years to discover that.) Back in 2012 I had a one-year-old, a three-year-old, and five teenagers! I was in and out of the doctor, and it was rough! Fast forward to 2014 when I was misdiagnosed and then treated for that diagnosis causing me to have $400,000 in medical bills because, well, that's a story for another day. Probably has something to do with the fact that I just started that medical gaslighting podcast.

Then I was told in 2018 that I had about a year to live. Talk about depressing! So I had to make a decision! Was I going to die then and leave all these kids? Or was I going to push? Man have I pushed!

And, as I said in the episode, I am absolutely not saying that if we just think positively everything's going to be fine and we're going to be healed. If that was a thing, no children would have cancer, so I am not trying to let you down that rosy, fake path.

Here's how I changed my life and here's how you can do it too...

Change the way you think about everything.

Long story short, find something you like in everything, and focus on that.

You and I are going to go on a journey. Is it a journey of 1%. We are going to make our lives 1% better per day. Do you know what that means? That means that in 3 1/2 months our lives are going to be 100% better.
