We each have so much more to do in our lives and in our roles. We often have fewer resources and a level of 24/7 connectivity that could become all absorbing.
Resilience better equips our people to cope.
Resilient people take a logical approach to change, set backs, and pressure. They analyse and determine what they can control, and what they can’t, and behave accordingly. Resilience is a powerful ally, but it isn’t magic, it can be taught.
Understanding resilience helps create motivation and positive action from pressure.
Resilience is about so much more than stress management. It involves understanding the negative situation before we create the positive way forward. We might not be able to control what happens to us in life, but we can control how we respond.
Building resilience touches upon our whole lives, from our working environment, to home, exercise, and diet. It’s about understanding our physiology. It helps us work with the negative energies that have led to stress, enabling us to be in the moment, understanding our own responses and reacting positively.
Resilience helps us to work better, and even more importantly, to live better, a virtuous circle towards a more fulfilling life.
