resilience
Resilience isn’t a trait that you either have or don’t have. Like any skill, resilience can be
developed, it just takes some practice. Here are some top tips for improving your resilience:
Commit to goals
Resilient people actively commit to achieving goals and dedicate time and effort to solving
problems and delivering solutions. Resilient people are committed to an active, engaged
outlook, they attempt to influence their surroundings and to make positive changes even when
things don’t always seem to be working out or seem hard.

See the good in life
We’ve all heard of the ‘glass half full’ mentality – resilient people tend to see stressful events
or problems as temporary setbacks or even as opportunities to learn and grow, rather than as
unbearable, insurmountable problems. They see life in very positive terms and can look at a
negative situation and find the good in it.
Be proactive
It’s widely noted that people who believe they have some measure of control over the
circumstances in their lives are less likely to be passive victims. They are much more likely to be
proactive and take responsibility and effective action to change things.
Be optimistic
Resilient people maintain a hopeful outlook, expecting positive results. They tend not to worry
about negative things that may happen in the future and focus their time and energy on the
good things that are likely to happen.
