To survive chronic ailments, building confidence is a must, even using cunning ingenuities    

If we as victims are a little innovative, we can make it an aim of our life to put smiles on the faces of everyone around us, and if we try to put balm on the souls of others, then the question doesn’t arise that we can’t have solace and serenity in our life even if we are going through pain and agonies, this is the simple philosophy of hope; developed by my friends and that is HOPE as (H) helping (O) other (P) people (E) evolve.

When faced with chronic ailments even serenity is attainable with the elixir of gratitude

Every motivational speaker talks about value of gratitude, and each study on this topic highlights the significance of gratitude as the most vital ingredient for ensuring serenity and tranquility in one’s life. As a stroke patient, whenever I visited the REHAB center, I tried to talk to people with severe to mild handicaps, mostly soldiers having lost their limbs or succumbed to serious head or spine injuries. Everyone was so buttoned up, moving around like lifeless corpse that, what to talk of discussing some specific topic like gratitude; none was interested in any conversation. This was becoming more like an enigma for me as to how could we explain this simple strategy to people with marginal education and big handicaps till I started bringing in the religious dimensions to explain this ideology of great value to humble people. The learning here is that people faced with severe health problems like some chronic ailments must have some tangible and practical ways and means like religious fervor to utilize gratitude as the most effective elixir for strengthening them in their battles against challenges like chronic ailments.

Perhaps the only way to win over chronic ailment is learning to live with its snags 

Challenges always carry difficulties, and the only option in the minds of the competitor is to win over the problems by conquering and completely crushing the enemy once and for all. On the contrary, winning against chronic ailments is such an awkward trial that winning sometimes is not a practical option; the best strategy is making a truce. Instead of getting involved in fighting an endless war of attrition, slowly eroding all our vitality, and seriously exhausting all our reserves, defeating us mentally and physically, we must befriend such an anomalous enemy by learning to live with the difficulties of her challenges. This way, we are a winner because we can save and preserve our depleting strength and energies, so ardently required at this stage and age.

Taking calculated risks is the only panacea to win over chronic ailment

Taking calculated risks in life is one of the best ways to strengthen one’s willpower, especially if we know life otherwise is full of risks. If this strategy is adopted, it’s bound to greatly benefit we people faced with chronic ailments, especially if we are taking such calculated risks under expert supervision in the beginning, and gradually develop courage and skills, to be able to go for a solo flight one day. Even a bedridden patient can develop strong hope and achieve extraordinary results by applying this stratagem. As long as we are ALIVE we must keep taking calculated RISKS to keep proving it to ourselves that we are ALIVE.

Keeping conscience clear of burdens like guilt ensures peaceful life

God gifted traits like GUILT if managed properly go a long way towards ensuring peace of mind, we must act contrite in time before the biting conscience adds to the rigors of age related infirmities and testing challenges of chronic ailments.

Sacrifice little ego to have heaps of health & happiness

Being a slave of little ego is asking for big trouble which we can’t afford if already handling big challenges like chronic ailments. If we want to be happy we should be the one taking lead in resolving matters and ensuring cease-fire, wise people always trade little ego with heaps of happiness.

Bigger the problems higher levels of trust we need in God Almighty

Stronger is our belief if connected to undeniable reality like death, people like Friedrich Nietzsche may deny God but none perhaps can deny the reality of death. Understanding the reality and utility of religion is need for us all faced with life threatening maladies and we may be allowed to draw strength from unchallengeable certainties to have stronger belief in religion to solidly help us in solid pain and agony.
