A wider perspective is hard when you are stressed, worried or frightened or just plain fed up. At diagnosis it can feel like looking up to the top of a mountain and having no clue as to which way leads to the top. For some its a challenge for others a nightmare.
Best thing is to have some short term achievable high reward goals and some longer term slightly harder goals. Then reasearch or get advice on how to achieve those goals and aim for them.
The start can be tough, whenever that point is, but the rewards can be remarkably good.
Keeping consistent records of your progress can be rewarding in itself, so you could give that a go. But, like looking towards the top of the mountain it can make you feel that is just too much, too difficult.
Unlike climbing a mountain it does mean a shift in lifestyle for life so have a look at what easier changes you can make early on. Nothing too hard or it could put you off.
