How You Grow Into Resilience - Wellbeing Wisdom Tiny Bites Podcast
What is resilience and how can you create more of it in your life?
Resilience is trust. Trust in your ability to persevere. Trust in your ability to react appropriately. Trust in your ability to choose your next step wisely.
How do you learn to trust yourself? By making mistakes, recognizing the mistakes, and from there, making a better choice.
You can only become resilient through the rough patches in your life, through dealing with the adversity that life inevitably tosses your way, and by giving yourself a pat on the back when you come through the adversity relatively unscathed and with a new little branch of knowledge and wisdom on the growing tree that is you.
Think about a sapling – in its earliest stages, saplings are easily eaten by a deer, which kills the sapling. As it grows, the sapling becomes less soft and flexible and more able to withstand the deer’s teeth. By the time it’s a few years old, the leaves are vulnerable, and the trunk no longer is.
You’re like that sapling – as you grow, you grow stronger and more able to withstand life’s challenges. Trust in the process – you’re gaining resilience every single day.
