At 18 years old, Martin van Helden was diagnosed with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) /Sjogren’s syndrome, an autoimmune illness, and this had a great impact on his daily life. He went out to self-study all there is to now about to cope with the illness that has no cure. To be able to keep up with his business, family and health concerns, he developed and embraced an existing method to cope with this all and get the best out of his situation.

In 2018, after suffering a heart attack, van Helden decided to go for a new path in life involving less stress and finally writing his long wanted book, “Turning Daily Struggle Into Opportunities” (published by Xlibris AU). This positive book is about a new way to look at obstacles in life as well as business and teaches readers on how to deal with them. It is a very useful book for personal situations and business owners. It offers a variety of options on how they may deal with their environment and the effect it has on them as a person.

“It’s easy for us to become stuck in a rut and stop seeing the potential lesson in the repeated setbacks we experience. When difficulties escalate into issues, they may quickly lead to feelings of hopelessness and anger. We can get through this because we are an active participant in making our world what it is. If we have a healthy dose of self-awareness and accountability, we may start ascending the ladder of enlightenment, where difficulties are transformed from obstacles into chances to see our best self,” van Helden points out.

When asked what he wants readers to take away from the book, van Helden answered, “I hope to help the readers to get better insight in their lives and that it helps them to build a better future for themselves and their families.” For more details about the book, please visit https://www.xlibris.com/en-au/bookstore/bookdetails/849797-turning-daily-struggle-into-opportunities
