Resilience is the way you can move forward successfully from hard things that happen in life. It describes the way you respond or adjust to life’s challenges based on genetic, environmental, psychological, and social factors. There are even different types of resilience!
Being resilient is not always a choice. Some people are resilient because they need it to survive, and some say it’s in their DNA. Whatever the reason, there are tools that you can use to help build resiliency. Learning and strengthening certain skills, behaviors, and attitudes is the process for building resilience.
