How I Found the Motivation to Heal from an “Incurable” Disease

How I Found the Motivation to Heal from an “Incurable” Disease

The Question That Changed Everything

A lot of people ask me how I found the motivation to heal from an “incurable” disease.

For me, one of the first questions that came to mind was:

“If someone tells me that something is incurable, why would I look to them to cure it?”

The Scary Diagnosis That Became My Motivation

After being told I would be in a wheelchair by 2016, lose the use of my legs, not be able to have kids, and that my life would be significantly shortened… that became my motivation.

When Fear Becomes Fuel

When people say “I could never change my diet” or “I could never change my life like that,” I remember how it felt to hear that devastating news.

That kind of fear and limitation can either break you… or light a fire under you.

It lit a fire in me.

You Can Do Anything With the Right Motivation

If someone tells you that you’re going to lose the use of your legs, or that your life is going to be shortened, that should be your motivation.

You can do anything when you have that kind of fire.

Ready to Find Your Own Motivation?

This is exactly why I wrote Healing Outside the System — to help others find their own motivation and path when the conventional system says there’s no hope.

You can explore these ideas further in the Books & Resources section of True North Wellness Co., including my free “First Steps to Healing” guide.
