As a physician who has treated thousands of patients with acute and chronic pain, I have found that those who successfully live with chronic pain maintain a positive attitude, and focus on setting realistic goals. The importance of maintaining focus in the workplace has been made clear time and time again in my many years of employment. Years ago, I met a man who we'll call "Pete".

This was a major setback and created discord and distress in his company as other employees feared that Pete had put their jobs in jeopardy. From that experience, I created the FACE success system as a tool to enhance productivity and customer service in the workplace.

We can be a Survivor and just hang in there, hoping for the best, sitting on the fence, and waiting to see what happens. Or we can choose to be a Victim, using the situation as one more example of how these terrible things keep happening to us.

Tell the Truth to Get Through Unhappy Times
