Fantastic Frank - Recovering from TBI Trumatic Brain InjuryThe following quote caught my attention: “Nobody rises to low expectations.” by Calvin Lloyd.
If you or someone else sets your personal standards to the lowest of your abilities then you won’t be able to rise to your full potential.
When I came out of my coma, the doctors expected me to be a vegetable for the rest of my life. I wasn’t going to let that happen. I knew my brain was functioning enough to be able to relearn how to walk and talk again. I was very determined and I didn’t let the doctors’ low expectations limit my ability to recover. I knew that if I worked smart enough I could regain my independence.

Set your expectations for your personal standards to a level at what you want to achieve.
After Julie Sanderson had experienced a Traumatic Brain Injury, she thought she wouldn’t be able to return to her work as a police officer. Her expectations for herself were low. Julie’s Mom reminded her that she had been hurt and Julie would get better. Julie did get better and returned to her job because of hard work and determination. Her journey to wellness started when she raised her expectations to what she wanted to achieve. Julie Sanderson’s story is written in “Chicken Soup for the Soul: Recovering from Traumatic Brain Injuries” page 290; as is my story on page 283.

With love, joy, and determination you can achieve your goals by not limiting your expectations of yourself.
