WAM = What's on Aaron's Mind - Stroke Survivors and now Traumatic Brain Injury
Hi traumatic brain injury peeps!
For those that don't know me (My story)
I'm about as real of a person you could ever meet in life! Thanks to surviving a massive brain aneurysm and two weeks later a massive stroke.
For all the amazing, miraculous and spiritual enlightenment this cataclysmic life event has brought to my life, I have become utterly grateful for my aneurysm and stroke!
I was also chosen to have a near death experience.
Over the past six months or so I've been discovering this near death experience came with some amazing and extremely powerful spiritual gifts! More later.
I try to always follow the leading of my heart
so here goes!
In the time I created
Second Chance Stroke Survivors Worldwide I have come to realize a traumatic brain injury survivor and a stroke survivor is almost indistinguishable.
So You know I was given an extremely powerful gift. Helping stroke survivors from around the world. I feel led to offer my gift to you my TBI survivor
brothers and sisters.
To prove we are virtually identical I wrote a poem about stroke survivors I will replace with traumatic brain injury survivor
and give me your feedback please!
Want to see a person who has looked death in the eyes?
I give you a traumatic brain injury survivor!
Want to see a person who walks in total despair but rises each morning with hope?
I give you a traumatic brain injury survivor!
Want to see a person faced with extreme financial hardship yet keeps going?
I give you a traumatic brain injury survivor!
Want to see a person whose life is changed as fast as lightning strikes?
I give you a traumatic brain injury survivor!
Want to see a person stripped down to the very core of life?
I give you a traumatic brain injury survivor!
Want to see a person who has every reason to wave a white flag of defeat but fights like a mighty warrior?
I give you a traumatic brain injury survivor!
Want to see a person who realizes life is extremely fragile?
I give you a traumatic brain injury survivor!
Want to see a person who truly loves life?
I give you a traumatic brain injury survivor!
Want to see a person who never gives up?
I give you a traumatic brain injury survivor!
Want to see a person that deeply and truly loves their family?
I give you a traumatic brain injury survivor!
Want to see a person who is stronger than any human on this planet?
I give you a traumatic brain injury survivor!
Want to see a person who understands pure love?
I give you a traumatic brain injury survivor!
Want to see a person who gives to others?
I give you a traumatic brain injury survivor!
Want to see a person whose brain does not control their body?
I give you a traumatic brain injury survivor!
WE ARE NOT BRAIN INJURY VICTIMS!
WE ARE BRAIN INJURY SURVIVORS!
You agree?
So my heart is tugging me to offer, If you'll have me, to become a very active member to see if I can help and inspire you? I was given an extremely creative brain so I post a lot!
No is okay.
3 month probationary time and see where it goes?

I am going to ask universe?
Hi!
Thanks for taking the time to read this.
My life situation forces me to ask this. You see on September 17th 2010 I survived a catastrophic brain aneurysm and a major stroke that has left me 1/2 paralyzed and wheelchair bound and a ton more.
(my story)
Being self employed, all of my families income stopped as fast as lightning strikes. My wife and I of 25 years have lost virtually everything but our house. We don't even have transportation.
If not for my awesome son Ryan Avila staying home and paying almost $1,000 a month and covering the mortgage, my wife and I would be in a much more terrible place.
It's my awesome son's 24th birthday today. Instead of being happy he feels like a loser for still living at home with mom and dad.
I try to explain to him that our life situation forced him to stay.
Of course being 24 and knowing everything, he still looks down on himself.
Now here is a question that doesn't just think outside the box it asks knowing there really is no box.
Will you consider paying off our house (around mid 300k) so Rebecca and I could afford to live here and my son could move out and pursue his own life's destiny? Maybe you can afford a reliable form of transportation for us also? I would like to put his name on the title. Ryan has earned it.
Crazy I know!
I have learned to expect nothing but hope for everything.
If you feel led to help my family please send me an email and I'll put you in touch with my wife Rebecca.
From my heart,
Aaron Avila

#WhatsOnAaronsMind I'M SHOCKED!
So peeps!
Last few days I've been working hard to grow Second Chance Stroke Survivors Worldwide on a global level.
What I'm finding is shocking and somewhat disappointing!
Primary social media platforms are not being used properly to raise stroke awareness!
My goal will be to dominate all primary social media platforms to not only raise stroke awareness on a global level but use it to raise the millions of dollars I need to give to you, my fellow stroke survivors around the world!
This is my divine destiny!

I WOULD BE NOTHING
So peeps I'm laying on the floor stretching and meditating to awesome Tibetan Monks and I became overwhelmed with emotion fully realizing that my awesome wife of 25+ years is the real cornerstone of who I am as man and all the lives I've changed on a global scale.
For without my awesome wife Rebecca Avila and her steadfast love for me I would not be who i am today!

SO UPSET COULDN'T SLEEP LAST NIGHT
Peeps as a stroke survivor I tend to wear my emotions on my sleeve!
I watched a video so upsetting I couldn't sleep last night!
I just can't bring myself to post a link to it!
The website is called "Anonymous"
It called on a certain date for black people to take to the streets called a day of rage.
Asking black people to kill cops and white people!
CAN SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME HOW AND WHY THIS TYPE OF WEBSITE CAN EVEN EXIST ON THE WEB?
IS THIS SOME HOW TWISTED AND FALLS UNDER FREEDOM OF SPEECH? I SURE XXXXXX HOPE NOT!
Is there not a tech person savvy enough to write a virus that will take it down?
In all my 52 years on planet earth have I never seen our great country in such unrest and I'm seeing the very fabric of our society as we know it seriously threatened!
THIS HATE MUST STOP!
If you pray, pray for the U.S.A.!
Our way of life is under attack like never before!
Sincerely,
Aaron Avila

#AaronsAboutBusiness KEEPING IT REAL PEEPS
Hi business peeps!
Just so you know a little about my business experience so there's no misunderstanding of who I am!
I feel like a little guppy swimming with a bunch of large fish business wise! Jeffrey Hayzlett being the biggest fish in the pond.
I owned and operated a water storage tank company specializing in large capacity field fabercated water holding tanks for almost 13 years. Raised and cared for my family well.
Than as fast as lightning strikes my destiny and life would be altered in a catastrophic way.
On September 17th 2010 I suffered a major brain aneurysm exploding in my head than two weeks later a major stroke! (My story)
Needless to say a 1/2 paralyzed wheelchair bound stroke survivor who can barely talk could no longer own and operate a water storage tank company and Chapter 11 was my only way out!
My family has pretty much lost everything due to the fact we have survived almost 6 years on under $19,000 a year. That used to be my minimum monthly nut! XXXX!
So now almost six years later I must for my awesome wife Rebecca sake and now for stroke survivors around the world I must learn from the best like Jeffrey Hayzlett.
I must make enough money not only for my stellar wife Rebecca for what she's done for me but I must also make enough money so I can give it to my fellow stroke survivors around the world who are suffering so.
How do I know stroke survivors are suffering? I have created a global support network called Second Chance Stroke Survivors Worldwide. (Read more)
Want to know more about me? Here's just some of my hashtags.
So guys and gals I must learn to do business once again! "I must saddle up and ride"! I must become the biggest baddest stroke survivor on planet earth! I must!
So in effort to learn about business again, I've created a Pinterest Board and Google Collection called Aaron's About Business (#AaronsAboutBusiness)
I'll share with you on Twitter those articles I feel may benefit others trying to learn more.
Stroke brain getting tired! More latter!
P.s. Here's the company I'm starting to build.
SO TOGETHER, LET'S SADDLE UP AND RIDE!
Monday, July 4, 2016
WAM! WHAT'S ON AARON'S MIND - OBVIOUS
To all my fellow stroke survivors out there!
As creator of a global stroke support network. I meet 1,000s of stroke survivors and the stroke survivors that have the best support THRIVE!
So I say I need to make millions of dollars so I can give it to all you my dear stroke survivors around planet earth!
STAY AWESOME! IF YOU PRAY, PLEASE SAY A PRAYER FOR ME!
My love for each of you comes from a spiritual place deep in my core as a man!
It was a gift given to me by the creator of the universe himself during my near death experience!
I'M HERE TODAY TO TELL YOU
YOU ARE VALUABLE AND PRECIOUS FOR YOU ARE A STROKE SURVIVOR!
#AaronsDidYouKnow
First .... Happy Independence Day!
#AaronsDidYouKnow
I wanted to share something personal about me because I am what I am and I am a brain aneurysm and stroke survivor. (My story)
I was also fortunate enough to have a near death experience.
Look peeps I was one of those survivors that had something extremely rare occur caused by my brain trauma.
I am like the person you may have heard about that has never taken a piano lesson a day in their life, but after surviving a major brain injury instantly became a concert pianist!
Huffington Post Live on this subject.
For me, my brain injury unlocked a limitless creative brain!
Using this newly found gift of creativity I have went on to create a legitimate worldwide stroke support movement and growing rapidly! Called Second Chance Stroke Survivors Worldwide. On a daily basis I help stroke survivors from around the world.
Here is a very small example of what my new gift has created! It would literally take pages to share everything I've created.
I have over 45 stand alone Second Chance Stroke Survivors Worldwide Chapters and Division Groups. (U.S. dominant) Most, not all of my groups are admined by a local stroke survivor.
My Pinterest Boards monthly impression average is over 122,000 views a month and growing. https://www.pinterest.com/2livesin1/
Here's only some of the hashtags my creative brain has created.
Some poems my creative brain has written.

Just a very few other creative writings and things.

- As fast as lightning strikes by Stroke Survivor Aaron Avila http://aaronsstrokechronicles.blogspot.com/p/as-fast-as-lightning-strikes-by-aaron.html
I have discovered by my numerous mistakes that this new found limitless brain has a flaw.
My stroke brain decisives me by convincing me that my current creative idea is great. When in all reality my brain is going completely off base! How do I know this has occurred? I only know it has occurred after my action and direction of thought completely blows up in my face! Usually in some way causing a person I care about some emotional harm! 3
I XXXXXXX hate it so much!
So odd is this brain behavior it's like seeing my actions from a third person point of view. To the ones I care about and have done this too, with all my heart I'm deeply sorry!
Awesome news!
I felt an inspiration and a human energy coming from Jeff I have never felt before!
I found not only is my creative brain going to be stellar in business, I can apply the powerful business message Jeff has to my stroke survival! Jeff's insight has been amazingly life changing for me!
So impressed with Jeff Hayzlett I built him a Google+ Collection in his honor! (Click here)
"I'm going to saddle up and ride" stroke survivor style! I will "Think big and Act bigger" I will be the biggest baddest stroke survivor on planet earth! Thanks to Jeffrey Hayzlett, because "I can"!
I will apply my creative brain to business. I will be "relentless". I will make millions of dollars not just to provide for my awesome family but to give away millions of dollars to my stroke survivors in need around the world!
My stroke brain's burning out so more later peeps!
Stay Awesome,
Aaron Avila

TO MY SPIRITUAL PILLARS OPRAH WINFREY DEVON FRANKLIN T.D. JAKES AND JOEL OSTEEN
Brother's and sister,
I have no clue if any of you read all I Tweet you? But I know if I believe God can lead your eyes here he will!
For like you, I believe we serve a God that uses his almighty power to steer all mankind's lives!
So as you may or may not know, I survived a major brain aneurysm and two weeks later a major stroke. (My Story)
In my near death experience God himself gave me a choice to live with untold pain or escape all my suffering and chose death. (My near death experience)
I am so so grateful I chose to live! Oh yes, the heartache and pain is never ending and intense but the truth I've learned about all mankind's existence including my own on planet earth is so worth a cataclysmic stroke and all the suffering that goes with it.
Now, a couple things I want to say.
Yesterday I had an "Ah Ha" moment Oprah!
I realize my stroke removed the walls to what's possible and what's not.
God literally can still part the Red Sea if he wants!
The only thing keeping God from parting the Red Sea in a person's life is they don't believe God really can perform miracles in lives to date. God is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow! Luke 13:8 Therefore the reason God doesn't do obvious miracles today like yesteryear is mankind stop believing and expecting God to!
Mmmmm! Interesting! I'm starting to preach! Who would have thunk it? lol
So I was also thinking if you Oprah, DeVon, T.D., Joel and I (God and I are going to build a multimillion dollar company so I can help some day) WATCH!
If we all join forces we will be able to help stroke survivors who are suffering worldwide. What do you think?
I was hoping Jeffrey Hayzlett would help me build my multimillion dollar company but I think I spooked him with a way excited over the top question and favor.
Darn no wall stroke brain I think did it! If any of you know Jeff please call him and tell him I'm okay. Please?
Here's the company God's inspired me to create!
Please please understand I am a spiritual infant in need of guidance!
I only want to fulfill my God given and powerful destiny.
By faith I believe you're reading this!
Stay awesome peeps!
Aaron Avila
