Learn to re define acceptance to having MS
Get your life back
Ask anybody to define acceptance and you’ll probably received as many responses as the number of people you asked. Looking at wikepedia’s definition of acceptance you’ll see - Acceptance is a person's agreement to experience a situation, to follow a process or condition (often a negative or uncomfortable situation) without attempting to change it, protest, or exit. I do not agree with the last part of this definition. I cannot swallow this last part, and I trust you too cannot accept it also. Having being diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis “without attempting to change it….” is nowadays something inconceivable in my mind. You’ll learn about a new and better way to define acceptance at having Multiple Sclerosis. You’ll start not only by learning to open your mind (feed good mental food for your thoughts) but opening your heart too Once you do that, you’ll see a wave of new thoughts flowing towards you right here and starting today.
THE FIRST BABY STEPS The analogy of taking baby steps fits perfectly well with our goal to define acceptance at having being diagnosed with a chronic, 100% unpredictable and incurable disease. There’s no magic here. It is not something you can drink and voila......life is all rosy and great again. The way that you will learn to define acceptance is totally based on your thoughts and your ability to learn to steer them in a positive direction reaching towards regaining the love and zest for life you had before MS. If you are reading this page, it is clear to me that you are ready to conquer the longest journey you started since the day you were first diagnosed with having MS: The stages of acceptance.
DEFINING WHERE ARE YOU RIGHT NOW Like I said before, if you are reading this page is probably because the true you is desperately looking to come out of that lonely dark path we MSers have to cross to grab hold of our lives again. As a person with almost 15 years living with Multiple Sclerosis I have to declare that acceptance and lost physical abilities and faculties are really a mental tug-of-war between you and your ego. From my personal experience I realize that the ego is never going to let us forget how it was before MS. The thing is that we must tell ourselves that it’s OK. We know that we are not HOW IT USED to be, we are just different and in many aspects I am of the opinion that we are better than before MS. Having lived the process involved in diagnosing MS and then the huge tsunami of emotions, fears, doubts and the millions of thoughts not worth mentioning anymore, have made us (MSers) better human beings. Right now, at this precise moment, you have to realize that you have within you the power to beat this thing called MS or you can let it beat you. As a matter of fact, it, would not conform with beating you. It would try to destroy you! Next you are going to find more about the mental feeding part I was talking about earlier. You should allow someone like Dr. Wayne Dyer show you how you can Change Your Thoughts—Change Your Life and you will start feeding new positive thoughts into your mind, your heart and your spirit. The Power of Intention is one of the most commanding and motivational works by Dr. Dyer I have ever read. Along with A New Way of Thinking, a New Way of Being , Being in Balance (in 2-CD Set) or you can get Being in Balance (Hardcover Book) and finally, one of his most recent best sellers Excuses Begone! are going to inspire you to conquer what you previously thought it was an insurmountable task of learning to live despite having Multiple Sclerosis.
