Olivia Munn, diagnosed with breast cancer in 2023, shared how this life-altering experience reshaped her priorities. After receiving the diagnosis, she focused solely on recovery, deciding to drop negative thoughts and distractions. She emphasized that confronting cancer required total commitment to survival. Recovering from cancer transformed her mindset, leading her to discard unnecessary burdens from her life. Munn articulated a new approach to challenges, emphasizing the importance of moving forward one step at a time and letting go of intrusive thoughts.
When I got the diagnosis, immediately, the negative thoughts in my head, I dropped all of that. Because when you are diagnosed with cancer you have one job.
That's all your mind is thinking about, and you're like 'How do I get through this? How do I live? How do I survive?' Because there's no way to climb Everest with extra baggage on your shoulders.
I'm like, oh, now that I got to the other side, I'm not going to - I can't imagine picking it back up.
It was literally one step at a time, right, so when I have the thoughts that creep in, I think very quickly and let it go.
