You CAN, if you THINK you can!

The Winning Mind:

If you think you are beaten, you are;
If you think you dare not, you don’t;
If you think to win, but think you lost
It’s almost sure you won’t.
For out in the world we find,
Success begins with a person’s will
It’s all in the state of mind.
Life’s battles don’t always go
To the stronger or faster man,
But sooner or later the man who wins
Is the man who thinks he can.

Walter D Wintle*

You CAN, if you THINK you can!

Sharing some uplifting thoughts on head/brain injury

Sharing some Information and Thoughts on Head and Brain Injury

Just sorting out some of my brain injury quotes (quite a “muddle/mission”)
enjoy these thoughts
“mr middle muddle” c

from http://www.facebook.com/livingwithheadinjury
and
https://craigsbooks.wordpress.com/category/inspirational-quotes/

“NO two brain injuries are the same”
“Traumatic brain injury (TBI) affects and upsets life on multiple levels: physical, psychological, social, and even spiritual.”
“I do not bewail what I have lost, because I am at peace with myself. I have fought a hard battle, given it my best, and won far more that I or anyone else ever thought I would.”
https://craigsbooks.wordpress.com/2016/11/02/i-do-not-bewail-what-i-have-lost-because-i-am-at-peace-with-myself-i-have-fought-a-hard-battle-given-it-my-best-and-won-far-more-that-i-or-anyone-else-ever-thought-i-would-2/

Whilst the brain injury may significantly affect/impact many areas of your life…
“You are not defined by your traumatic brain injury”
and
“Don’t let your tbi define you!”
(thanks, m)

“Whilst you are not defined by your brain injury, your life may have been. Just work within the constraints of your TBI and around it, so that we never become a ‘victim’…

Uplifting Friends

http://www.beyondthezonespirit.wordpress.com

janbeek

True friends stick by you

Even when you’re far away

They live happily in your heart

And warm it every single day

.

They send you cards to uplift

And call you out of the blue

They ask about your family

And listen after “How are you?”

.

They say they’re thinking of you

They share their thoughts and prayers

They remember to inquire about

Your health, your joys, your scares

.

When you’re feeling especially happy

They’re the ones you want to call

When you’re worried, sad, or blue,

They help you stand up tall

.

Just thinking of those friends

Puts a smile on your face

Each day thank the Lord for them

They’re witnesses to God’s Grace!

Finding hope in the face of loss

Sharing some Information and Thoughts on Head and Brain Injury

Webster’s dictionary defines hope as “to expect or wish… to be optimistic… to cherish a desire of good… with expectation of obtaining it or belief that it is obtainable…to place confidence in, to trust with confident expectation of good.”

I hadn’t thought much about the meaning of hope before my son Zach’s major brain injury while playing football, but with his prognosis of “death to full recovery or anything in between,” I hoped for his full recovery.
