Transforming a Florida Boat Accident into an Opportunity for Improvement and Growth

A Florida boat accident has left you metaphorically dead in the water.
Perhaps you broke your arm while water skiing when your brother banked the boat too hard around a bend. Or maybe you suffered a concussion on an industrial vessel just south of Miami when a storm caught your team by surprise. Perhaps you developed chronic damage to your musculature and soft tissue after working on a Florida fishing boat for several decades.
In any case, you are in pain, frustrated, possibly out of work, and overwhelmed by the challenges that confront you.
When you are down and out like this, you might enter into a less-than-constructive mindset - one that emphasizes "a return to normalcy" as supposed to "striving for betterment." In other words, you might be thinking about tactics and strategies you can use to "get back to normal" - being able to do the work that you used to, to get back to your job as quickly as possible, to heal from your injuries, to fix your broken boat or other property, etc.
Obviously, these concerns are all very real and very important.
All that said... when accidents happen in life, they often contain hidden, exciting, and built-in opportunities. For instance, maybe your accident has forced you to take a vacation for the first time in 20 years; it's also forced you to reassess your career and your level of self-development. Take advantage of this "forced vacation" and "forced contemplation." Use this opportunity to change your focus, get the education and training you need, and shift your attitude in a positive direction to build and improve your life and career.
In a subsequent blog posts and FAQs, we will address some "on-the-ground" strategies and tactics for helping you achieve success with your rehab and attitude shifts.
