“It will be easier but not better” - I am crying!! One of my fav Tedx talks about positivity and never giving up. Hang on if you’re going through stuff. We got this!
Whilst I would probably not hold the same talk today , I strongly believe that this statement is what kept me going. Today. 16 years later… with a body that is letting me down at every corner, with complications that often overwhelm my daily life… I have managed to befriend some of my differences and have used them as the foundation for the new me: a me that looked deep into my life, into my process, into my journey… and have become a better person, despite, in spite, and thanks to my disability. Thank you for your kind comment.
This is glorious, I've been looking for "what are the benefits of positive self talk?" for a while now, and I think this has helped. You ever tried - Piyameron Singular Preeminence - (do a google search ) ? It is a great one of a kind product for ending your limiting beliefs minus the headache. Ive heard some unbelievable things about it and my neighbour got excellent success with it.
I wish I had your kind of attitude everyday day I felt lonely and depressed,but watching your video make me a little feel better now I learned from you that everyone has opsitcles you just have to be positive even your darkest time
I understand because my two brothers died from Muscular Dystrophy. Their cure was living every day to its fullest. It didn't save their lives, but they had quality of life while they were alive.
I am so sorry for your loss and I am grateful that you were able to experience first hand their positivity and drive. Whilst I am certain you felt their pain and dispair… you also saw that their drive to live, to continue experiencing life , to have hope. Thank you for sharing
Chris, you're awesome. Plain and simple. Thank you for sharing your moving and touching story with the world. Your speech has already helped me feel better, and I'm going to take what you've said to heart. Wishing you all the best this life has to offer.
Mental strength and the right support is power. You will walk again with all these researches 🙏🏽. Staying positive can be very difficult…I’ve just looked at my small problems and am feeling very unappreciative right now.
Wow. Listening to this man made me feel better from the pain i’m going through right now. Have so much respect for this man. Thank you for sharing this. 🖤
Imagine how happy we would all be if we were to awaken from a vivid hyper-realistic dream that made us believe we were this man for a day. Happiness is just having the right context sometimes.
Thanks for your comment. We are all this man. We all have this inside of us: the power to be us, to not be influenced by the judgement of strangers around us - however familiar they are- and to persue our own journey. One of healing, one of growing, one of accepting that what we are going thru- whatever that is, a disability, a pain, a divorce, a job that affects us, a family, doubts about our parenting skills, financial troubles… We all carry shame, doubts, uncertainty… we all deal with challenges. And we all have the inner power to overcome them. It took me 1 years to to accept my disability… and 15 to understand it… to befriend it. Thanks
Thank you Chris for being a positive force of nature! For your honesty in sharing your pain. Talking about being positive & still admit you aren’t always, shows the raw emotion you feel yet continue to persevere. Congratulations on killing it! And thank you for putting yourself out there & sharing the truth with the world.
This was so beautiful! A speech that I really needed to listen to right now. Your positive energy and amazing strength inspire ! Wishing you good health and a life lived to the fullest! God bless
Chris, I really hope you see this. Last night I was wishing for something to help me be positive and suffer less during painful periods. It did help me very much. You know I think you're a talented speaker, I wonder if it would help youeven more if you spoke frequently. Hope you don't mind, I was also helped by Ekhard Toole in accepting my situation. A lecture called "What you have is enough" Thank you for being there for me. I'll think of you.
Am blessed with your story, and you've touched many lives by sharing this inspiring messages..hope and positive thinking are one of the keys to overcome
Thank you so much for sharing your story. I am so glad that you are surrounded with a loving and kind wife and family. May you all be showered with unimaginable blessings :-)
V. inspiring. I really appreciated the honesty about the difficult times and the greater context of friends and family. A really inspiring and uplifting, helpful gift to others. Thank you and good wishes.
I am chronically ill, entirely on my own, have chronic pain, unable to eat much due to end Colon problems, have become disabled, my feet have rotted, my body is weakened. I am all on my own, wishing myself dead yet too cowardly to do the deed.
Just For Today... I'm going to wake, and just stop. I'm going to sit there and take everything in. Think about why I have another day of life, when so many will not. Focus on how I can show my appreciation to my God who has made this possible. Just for today, I will pause and think about not what I have to worry about this morning afternoon and evening, but instead focus and be thankful for everything I don't have to worry about this day. Just for today, I will forget all that is bothering me. Instead concentrate on finding another that has bothers greater than mine, and do what I can to make them go away, if even... just for today. Just for today, I'm going to pretend this is the last day of my life, and be thankful for all it brings, and doesn't. I'm not going to worry about tomorrow, just make the very best of today I can, for myself, and most importantly everyone I come in contact with. I know today is going to be a great day for all of you.The best thing is that tomorrow will be even better, if we just do the very best we can... just for today!
I kind of disagree because it sometimes is hard for the people you can’t judge hard people have heart problems like that I kind of disagree I don’t want I don’t want to feel that way I just want to die

the comfort zone is a safe place,but nothing grows there....
The fact that I could really see you as you and not even have the fact that you are paralysed is insane.
Incredible story, thank you for sharing with us 🤍
