Building resilience
Muse #419 - needs disciplined practice
I recently read this Daily Coach article on 3 principles of resilience. It resonated with me, so I thought I would share it here.
Adaptability to the moment. Having resiliency means we accept a sudden pivot, a quick adjustment that will help structure the mission.
Persistence before and during. Everyone discusses being persistent during the contest, but being able to be persistent before it — not reading or believing the good or the bad — allows resiliency to shine.
Learning. People with great resiliency crave knowledge, and through their intellectual stimulation, they fortify their resolve.
Being resilient is not a matter of throwing out cliches and pleading to (blindly - emphasis mine) “stick with it.” It means articulating a vision and spelling out how to handle inevitable hardship long before it ever arises.
