Motivation Monday: Things I Wish I’d Learned Sooner
Hey everyone! Hope you all had a great weekend.
For today’s Motivation Monday topic, I wanted to share Brynne’s story with you all. Brynne contributed to our 31 Days of SMA initiative, and I love what she wrote here. I love her line about “disability is what you make of it.” Though I recognize my limitations, I also know that there are plenty of things that my disability doesn’t prevent me from doing. In many ways, living with SMA has made me stronger, more resilient, and more patient.
Do you have any takeaways from Brynne’s story?

I like the idea of focusing on what we can do, rather than what we can’t. It’s a constant battle for me. Sometimes SMA sort of mentally paralyzes me.

It can for sure, but there’s always another way of looking at things when you find yourself stuck in this mindset. Interestingly enough, I just came across a column on one of our sibling sites about this idea. Check it out here.

I think those of us with physical disabilities do tend to be more observant out of necessity. Good column.
