Resilience is a lot about those soft skills, or “EQ” and a lot about what makes us healthy and happy:
· It’s being honest and open about your feelings; it’s vulnerability.
· It’s being curious where those (especially what we think of as negative) thoughts and feelings come from and letting yourself go with them for the moment.
· It’s being compassionate with yourself (and with others) when you (they) fail.
· It’s finding and acknowledging those false assumptions and putting a correct one in its place; - this is key, and not easy!
· It’s learning from the mistake and putting new practices in place.
· It’s not only about healthy mindsets, but also about healthy lifestyles and relationships.
When it comes to our thoughts and emotions and that struggle to see what’s really happening, then its really about what’s going on inside of us.
