Ten years from now, from a 30,000 foot level, your recovery might look similar to some other recoveries. But the day-by-day actions you will have taken to get there will have been unique.
There are probably dozens of successful formulas for recovery. We just don't know which one will work for us. But even if we knew the perfect 30,000 foot formula for our specific situation, it wouldn't be able give us much guidance on what exactly we should do today. Each of our situations, our personalities, and our dreams are wildly unique.
But let's start here: Rather than thinking you're the only person who's facing these trials, please realize you're not alone.
On the day when the news of Mike's crisis spread across the country, he received a surprising email with this subject line: "Confidential (friendly) note."
Mike called the person, who explained that she had gone through something a little bit similar, and she shared how it had impacted her. She also offered assurance that other people had gone through something similar and that Mike was not alone. Although the full impact of the crisis hadn't yet registered Mike, this conversation became increasingly valuable in making him feel less isolated in later weeks.
How you will recover from your crisis isn't yet clear.
An important place to start is to realize that you're not alone. There are a lot of people silently cheering for you to get back on your feet.
