It is very easy to get health, happiness, and success from others, just as you can easily be infected by other people's troubles, pain, and failures. 5 years ago, I got a stomach ulcer because of excessive worry, depression.The doctor asked me to control my diet, and I could only drink milk and eat eggs until my condition improved.I followed the doctor's advice, but my condition did not improve fundamentally.One day, I read an article about cancer and felt that my various symptoms were exactly as described above.I freaked out and ended up making my stomach ulcers worse.Then all kinds of blows came one after another. The army thought that I was too weak and refused to enlist me. At that time, I happened to be 25 years old, which should be the strongest age.

I've reached the end of my rope, and I can't see a shred of hope.In desperation, I tried to analyze how I had come to this terrible situation, and the facts unfolded before my eyes. I used to be a salesperson two years ago, happy and healthy.However, due to the lack of supplies during the war, I had to give up this job and became a worker in the factory.I despised my job and was surrounded by negative people who complained about everything and cursed their jobs, wages, hours and bosses.Unknowingly, I was deeply affected by this negativity. I finally understood that my gastric ulcer was caused by this negativity and decadence.So I decided to go back to the sales job I loved, working with people who were positive and constructive.

This decision saved my life.I actively make friends with people who are optimistic, motivated, and not burdened by worries and illnesses.As my emotions adjusted, so did my stomach, and sometimes I even forgot I had a stomach ulcer.I found that it is very easy to get health, happiness, and success from others, just as you can easily get trouble, pain, and failure from others. This is one of the most important lessons in my life, I have heard and read it so many times, I should have learned it long ago, but I had to learn it the painful way. Now I understand what Jesus said: "He who can think with the heart can be successful."
