For PKD patients, life goes on regardless of the patient’s attitude towards his/her disease.

PKD patients, like everybody else, have their dreams, longings, and yearnings. They still have a “purpose” to fulfill.

In the pursuit of these dreams, “life,” in the form of PKD, gets in the way. No big deal here. You know the saying, “You want to make God laugh? Make plans!”

What I’m saying is that PKD patients, after all is said and done, are no different than anybody else. We all have our desires. Some we are able to achieve, and some we are not. (You can’t always get what you want!”)

But, clearly, you can get some of them!

It’s a matter of focus!

There are areas of my life that I would like to focus on more than I do. And, in fact, I am improving in the area of focus.

The “obstacle” is that I have many interests! have to allocate my time to make “progress” in these areas of interests! Often easier said than done!

I’m slowly cutting back on TV watching. (Not much, but some!) :-)

I’m sure you have goals and outcomes that you want to achieve.

But, in order to pursue these desires, you really have to answer, in as much detail as possible the question,

“What do you want?”

(Besides being cured of PKD!)

The next question, which many “success” systems don’t ask, is,

“Why?” or “What is important to you about having that which you want?”

Having a strong enough “Why” will provide the motivation to pay the price to achieve the goal.

The story of your life is largely made up of the “pursuit of your happiness.”

Think of some people whose life story is inspiring. Why is this the case?

Personally, one of my “heroes” is Albert Schweitzer. You might want to “check him out.”

What would make your life story an inspiring one? It doesn’t have to ba grandiose one like Schweitzer’s.

Sometimes, living an “ordinary” life (whatever that is) under challenging conditions is quite inspiring!

What has to happen for you to live a “life story” that is will satisfy your “Why?”

I’m curious as to what would make your life one that you would be satisfied with.

Remember, your “PKD Odyssey” is not just about PKD!
