RESILIENT


It is easier, I think, to feel resilient when your life has meaning.

When your days are filled with engaging work, be it outside the home, or inside, but doing work that matters, you are better able to handle whatever struggles come your way.  If, in addition to doing meaningful work, you are surrounded by people who respect and care about you, well then, there is very little that can bring you down.

People who are resilient aren’t lucky.  They’ve just understood that they have a choice in determining the work they engage in and the people they allow to surround them.

On the other hand, those that feel beleaguered by struggles  believe, without a shadow of a doubt, that resilience has everything to do with luck.
