April 16th, 2020 will be 10 years from the photo on the left.
After a 6-hr brain surgery to remove a massive brain tumor, leaving me with 75 staples, 16 stitches, and 4 titanium screws in my skull, I was back on my bike 5 weeks later.
Perceptive is everything and I could have chose one of fear and lived life as a victim. But, I chose to become a survivor and live life on my own terms.
I believe we all have the same choice in our life and that’s our perspective, which no one can take from us.
It’s a choice we’re faced with on a daily basis.
It’s not always easy but it’s worth putting in the effort to become aware of our thoughts and focus on shifting them to become more aligned with our desires.
I could have easily chosen the path of a victim and had given up on more than a handful of occasions and no one would have questioned me.
But, my vision for my life wouldn’t allow that choice.
My vision to become the best version of myself also led me to a ketogenic lifestyle for the health and longevity of my brain consisting of a ketogenic diet, fasting, and exogenous ketones.
Since adopting this lifestyle, I’ve become more conscious and proactive of other areas of my life, I’ve been able to avoid surgery, medication and treatment of the recent 2 brain tumors in 2017, I’ve connected with wonderful people in my life, and I’ve been able to embrace a higher purpose in life consisting of helping others.
Had I not chosen to be proactive about my health, I wouldn’t be where I am today connecting with all of you.
👉🏼 “life is 10% what’s happens to us and 90% how we move forward”.
&
👉🏼 “life doesn’t happen to us, it happens for us”.
&
👉🏼 “you can choose to change in a place of joy and inspiration, or in a place of pain and suffering”.
All above quotes detail the same choice, a choice in perspective and how we see the world and the events that take place in our lives.
Ive learned change doesn’t have to happen when we’re in a place of pain and suffering. It’s my mission to inspire the perspective of change occurring during joy and inspiration so we can be proactive rather than reactive for the live we desire.
