Resilience - How to Develop

ResilienceHow to Develop

Introduction• The world we live in

faces many challenges: environmental, social, economics, and political.

• Those problems can seem so huge and insurmountable that we often give up on them before we even try to tackle them.

Introduction• During our Life, we

have to know that there is a chance we may fail.

• Confucius once said: "Our greatest glory is not in never failing, but in rising every time we fall."

Resilience - Definition

• Resilience is the ability to persevere and bounce back from adversity, problem or obstacle.

Ways to Develop Resilience• Make connections:

– Form a network of professional and personal resources who can step in with advice or lend a sympathetic ear when times get tough.

– Helping others in their time of need can benefit the helper as well.

Ways to Develop Resilience• Avoid seeing crises as

insurmountable problems:– Whether your business

has had to downsize or just changed markets to accommodate the economy, you should focus on the big picture and realize that these setbacks do not necessarily threaten the life of your business.

Ways to Develop Resilience• Accept that change is a

part of living:– People evolve, and

businesses do too. – While change can be

painful, accept that your business will change to meet new circumstances, whether it is an updated business plan or a new niche of customers served.

– In today's business and economic climate, the ability to be flexible is key.

Ways to Develop Resilience

• Take decisive actions:– Act on adverse situations

as much as you can. – Take decisive actions,

rather than avoiding problems and stresses and wishing they would just go away.

Ways to Develop Resilience

• Look for opportunities for self-discovery:– People often learn

something about themselves and may find that they have grown in some respect as a result of their struggles.

Ways to Develop Resilience

• Nurture a positive view of yourself and your company:– You may think that any kind

of business has been hit hard in this economy, but take a look at how well positioned your company is to survive.

Important• In the business world, we

all can learn from being resilient.

• You must take action and get back in the game.

• Life is the experiment. • Life is too short. Achieve

your dreams.• Don't waste time.

Conclusion• Fear of failure and fear

of the unknown are always defeated by faith.

• Having faith in yourself, in the process of change, and in the new direction that change sets, will reveal your own inner core of steel.
