Your will conquers how you feel

Disease is an impediment to the body, but not to the will.

Epictetus

It’s highly likely at one point or another, you’ll experience severe physical ailments. Regardless of the sort you are forced to endure, you have a choice towards progress. If you suffer a stroke and are left paralyzed, it is obvious you can’t go running a marathon the next day, but you can attempt to move your afflicted body parts. If you suffer from a cold and are left bedridden, you can find productive use of your free time. No one is forcing you to lay in bed binge-watching Netflix. Whatever you decide to do, don’t feel sorry for yourself. You have the will to do something, and anything is better than nothing.
