The simplicity of this truth just kind of hit me square in the face today. I love how the experience of others can be shared to teach us newbies. Thank you!
It's so simple. I cannot borrow trouble from tomorrow. I can only do what is in front of me in the present moment.
And if my RTW doesn't go as planned, so be it. If it takes longer, so be it. If its premature, we'll find out soon enough.
Contentedness in the present moment is the best gift PCS has ever given me. Because prior to being injured I had no physiological need for disciplined thought like I do now, to keep anxiety (and subsequent worsening symptoms) at bay.
So I should say, my first RTW plan is before me, wish me luck veterans!
I still haven't started the vigorous therapy plan which goes for six weeks prior to the gradual return to work. Waiting on doctor's approval or red tape with WCB, not sure, and don't really care. Time is my friend.
