How do "YOU" face a problem. Is it, oh no I cannot do that, perhaps I am going to think on his one. Or, well I guess I have just to put my thinking cap on an get started.
The more positive and determined the approach I have found to be best. It is very easy with this disease to take the easy way out. ms in its various forms really does want you to fail. To just give up without even trying, or to make such a halfhearted attempt that "YOU" are practically guaranteed to fail. How about "YOU" take a moment, think about it and come up with a way where "YOU" succeed. If "YOU" can not think of a way to get something done perhaps "YOU" ask other people. They may have ideas that had never occurred to "YOU" There are so many possibilities out there do not sell yourself short by giving up after the first try. My hands did not like tying shoe laces, so I went to slip ons. An obvious choice but I did have to think about it for awhile. Voice recognition text may be an option one day that I should look at. I just like using one finger because I know it would annoy my old typing teacher and that amuses me. Small things, but it is silly. I face a problem by thinking about it, determining what I might need and accepting the possibility of failure after a good attempt. When I was flying I always visualized how to fly a maneuver, what the gauges should look like before an exam, what I would do and when I would do it.
Visualize and see yourself doing what needs to be done and "YOU" successfully do it. See yourself in the best possible light, accept that may be first place is not for "YOU" but aim for it. Always aim for the best, better than the best never the bottom.

ms wants "YOU" to fail, don't "YOU" are too good for that.
