As a recent Stroke Survivor and Author of You Will See God’s Miracles If Only You Believe (available for purchase on Amazon.com), I am here to share some crucial life-lessons I learned in recent years concerning well-balanced lifestyles, how to divert personal disasters, and the art of listening to what your body and mind is trying to tell you. 作為一個最近遭受中風的幸存者和《只要你相信你就能見證上帝奇跡》（該書亞馬遜上有售）的作者，我有些個人覺得重要的人生經驗與大家分享，從均衡兼顧的生活方式、避免個人不幸、如何傾聽以及解讀身心發出的信號的幾個方面。
As an executive, my plate was filled to overflowing. I basically worked from sun up to sun down, so to speak. 我是個經理，工作常常是超負荷運轉，可以說基本上每天都是起早貪黑。
Prior to my stroke, I thrived in my role as CEO of a successful chamber of commerce. 中風以前，作為一名CEO我在商會可謂是事業有成。
To balance the stress, I would work out at the gym a minimum of two hours a day, seven days a week. There were even days, when I would go to the gym twice in one day. What I did not realize, was that stress in my work life and excessive workout regimen was taking a toll on my health.為了緩解壓力，我會去健身房至少鍛煉兩個小時，一周七天，一天不落。在當時我沒有察覺到的是，工作帶來的壓力和過度的鍛煉會給我的健康帶來的不利影響。
Friday December 20, 2013 will be forever etched in my memory. That fateful morning, I was exhausted, and my spirit told me to stay home and get some much-needed rest, but I didn’t listen. Driven by my ambition, I jumped out of bed and drove to the gym for a vigorous work-out. 2013年的12月20日，星期五，這天我永生難忘。那個不討喜的早晨，我筋疲力盡，直覺告訴我要待在家，多休息會兒補充必要的精力，但是我不以為然。靠著意志力起床后，我開車去了健身房鍛煉。
As a result, I suffered a severe hemorrhaging stroke induced by a rigorous work load and around-the-clock schedule. During my time in the hospital, the neurologist told me something very startling,” It was your drive that got you in here, and your drive will get you out.” Then, he said something that stunned me. I asked him if I had stayed in bed that morning, would I have had the stroke? He said a resounding…” No.”結果是，緊鑼密鼓的鍛煉計劃加之過度的鍛煉負荷引發了顱內出血引起的急性中風。在醫院里，神經學的醫生說了一些讓我很震驚的話，：“就是你的偏執讓你來醫院，偏執還會讓你的生活脫離正軌”。然后他又補充了些，我問他如果我那天早上不去鍛煉就在床上躺著，是不是就不會中風了。他回答，對，那就不會中風了。
My message is simple, but powerful… 我要傳遞的信息很簡單，但是很深刻
Take nothing for granted! 不要掉以輕心！
DARE! To believe God for miracles! 要勇敢！相信上帝會創造奇跡！
And face adversity…with an attitude! 面對挫折要表明自己的態度！
