Have u read the book or seen the movie Lone Survivor? US navy seal Marcus Luttrell along with few other seals is in lookout for a Taliban leader in Afghanistan. Taliban attacks them and he is the lone survivor with 11 bullet injuries, broken back,nose and pelvis
He needed to travel some 10 kms to reach nearest village for any chance of survival. He decided to crawl.But he didn’t think of that long distance as it would overwhelm him. He grabbed a pebble and drew a line in dirt. Then he crawled forward. When his feet passed that line,
he crawled again and drew another line. He did that for the whole 10 kms. He neither thought positive nor negative. He only told himself I am capable of crawling to this line. That’s ultimate neutral thinking.
The next time life presents with a challenge, don’t assume things will workout or get overwhelmed by the problem. Figure out the situation and draw ur line. When u cross that ,draw another one. Keep going.
