Hal Elrod survived three years of chemotherapy, 26 months of sleep deprivation, and hallucinations. He credits gratitude and perspective for getting through it, and argues that reframing pain as preparation to help others can transform how you face difficulty.
When I was going through the darkest period of my life in 2026 months of sleep deprivation and hallucinations after three years of chemotherapy. I was in a bad, bad, bad place. What got me through it was one was gratitude, and the other was perspective.
