Yesterday I saw the report dedicated to Fernando Vega de Seoane entitled "8 seconds" (you can watch it on Movistar Plus+), and it really inspired me.
The accident of Fernando Vega de Seoane
Fernando had a skiing accident in January 2022 and has become paraplegic. Instead of breaking down, starting to regret… what we all would have done in his case, he has decided to be positive and take control of his life.
8 seconds that changed everything that came after
In the report he tells how in the first few seconds he went from knowing that he had become paraplegic and was in the deepest pit, to being aware that he was alive and that life was giving him a second chance.
This was the turning point saudi arabia mobile number owner name where everything changed. I see it as two paths: he could either let himself be carried away by the situation or make the decision to start from scratch at that moment. I imagine that because of his personality and instinct to protect his family, he decided on the latter.
He has accepted what has come to him and moved on to the next point in his life. He has taken it as something that had to come and decided that not only will it not bring him down, but it is the starting point for a new and exciting life. Surely he will have his moments of depression, but the guy is on a roll.
The world's best wheelchair golfer
He wants to be the best golfer in the world in his category and, given his drive, I bet he will achieve it. As one of the interviewees (president of EDGAR, Federation for disabled golfers) said: “For many in his situation, success is hitting the ball, for Fernando it is being world champion.”
If Fernando can do it, why can't I?
Of course, few people have the ability that Fernando has had to overcome adversity. But, if we compare his situation with the problems that most of us have (work, family, children, etc.), can we really not cope? Can we really not decide to be happy and start our journey from there?
We just have to be aware of the huge amount of things we can be grateful for in our lives and rely on them to change our attitude. I know it's easy to say it but not easy to do it.
I have two options: keep struggling with life or go with the flow. Stress out or be thankful for what God gives me. I choose the second option.
I have decided to be happy and positive. I'm starting today.
I have decided to be happy. I start today.
