Elijah Stacy has arguably accomplished more in his twenty years than most people do in a lifetime.  His mission, to minimize human suffering and propel human prosperity so that humanity can have a better quality of life, directs all of his actions.  What motivates a young adult to develop a super-sized mission which focuses on others and not themselves?  Perhaps the fact that he was diagnosed with a fatal disease as a child, and wishes others to not experience the suffering he himself has endured.  We can all learn from Elijah's courage, his conviction and his never-quit attitude.

I can confidently say that Elijah Stacy is one of the most fascinating people I've met. He is the author of “A Small If”, and he speaks regularly about his philosophy on life and the struggles that have inspired it. He has the wisdom and approach to life that you might expect from someone in their 70's or 80's but Elijah is only 20 years old. He is on a mission to change the world – to cure diseases, to reduce humanity's suffering, and to inspire other people to overcome. It's the huge struggles he's faced, and the suffering he's witnessed in his own family, that has influenced him to develop an amazing mindset of tenacity and ambition.

Disabled 20 Year Old and Activist Elijah Stacy talks about the non-profit he started to help fight Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy.

Elijah Stacy suffers from Duchenne muscular dystrophy. After he found out that his disease is both fatal and incurable at age 15, Elijah accepted the challenge to find a cure and began making remarkable progress.

Elijah Stacy, author of A Small If: The Inspiring Story of a Story of a 17-Year-Old with a Fatal Disease and A Mission To Cure It began writing his book at the age of 16 to show people how they can overcome their adversity and develop better mindsets. Despite his Duchenne muscular dystrophy disease diagnosis, he maintains a positive mindset and he says that the “small If” from his book comes from something his doctor told him when he was faced with the prospect of spinal surgery to correct his scoliosis. He adds that when you're in a wheelchair, people often think you can't do something, which motivates him to prove them wrong.    Stacy says that writing the book made him learn so much about himself. This book will also help anyone dealing with adversity to become more resilient, more hopeful, inspired and motivated to live more fulfilling lives and push themselves towards greatness. The book includes 13 life lessons he has learned through his diagnosis including improving his self-image. Stacy says that one of the major lessons he learned was how it was possible to see himself as a smart, confident individual capable of doing great things and not as a disabled person. His tough mental attitude can be credited to his parents. He adds, “I just don't see the logic in being pessimistic. I see the logic in being a realist but I also see the logic in being an optimist because optimism leads to things being innovative, being accomplished…which is super important.”    His optimism is contagious, despite being diagnosed with a fatal disease that has a life expectancy of 25 years. Stacy adds that “Every adversity is an opportunity to improve your character and be a stronger person.” Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Today’s Guests Dr. Linda Mintle – The Dr. Linda Mintle Show Struggling with overthinking? Coupled with prayer, we can help free our minds from being overwhelmed by keeping a paper near and writing down everything that comes in our minds to do. We can also enter into nature to help calm our worries. Elijah Stacy […] The post What to do When It’s Time for a Brain Dump | Overcoming Extreme Suffering by Developing an Adapter’s Mindset appeared first on The Reconnect with Carmen | Engaging Culture from a Christian Worldview.

Psychologist Linda Mintle talks about how writing down worries can actually help free them from your mind and spiritual ways to destress.

Sometimes all you need is “A Small If” – That's all Elijah Stacy would need to do something that had never been done before –change the shape of his own spine. This week's Team Never Quit guest brings to the table his incredible story of the phenomenal pursuit of life itself. Elijah suffers from Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy – a fatal disease - which took the life of his younger brother. Yet he maintains a positive outlook on his future, despite the odds. Does Elijah Stacy stay at home in his wheelchair feeling sorry for himself? Not hardly. He launched a non-profit organization – Destroy Duchenne at age 15 in an endeavor to find a cure via gene-editing technology. He is a public speaker and has a passion for business.  Listen in as Elijah encourages all of us to be the change that we seek. In this episode you will hear: • When I was 6 years old, I was diagnosed with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. • I have an athlete's mindset as my dad was a football coach. • My wheelchair symbolizes suffering. Everyone will suffer at some point in their life. • But I sit on top of my wheelchair. I symbolize that you can overcome adversity. • My mind is set on being great. • Be a better version of yourself. • Let me be the difference. • Adversity is an opportunity to improve your character. • One of my priorities is to bring awareness to this disease. • I'm trying to be the Magic Johnson of Duchenne. • If we can learn to edit our DNA, we can cure any disease. • Every day is a never-quit day. • I love when people doubt me. I'm like “Oh, let's bet on it.” • I hung a picture of my curved spine on my wall, so I could visualize it being straighter. • All I needed was a small ”if”. I just needed to know it's possible. • Everything I do is in service for other people.
