What is Resilience?

Resilience refers to how well you can deal with and bounce back from the difficulties of life. It can mean the difference between handling pressure and losing your cool. Resilient people tend to maintain a more positive outlook and cope with stress more effectively.
Research has shown that while some people seem to come by resilience naturally, these behaviours can also be learned.
Whether you're going through a tough time now or you want to be prepared for the next one, here are a couple techniques you can focus on in order to foster your own resilience
Tip 1 - Find a sense of purpose in your life - perhaps volunteer, get involved with your community, do something that you truly enjoy and share it
Tip 2 - Having confidence in your own ability to cope with the stresses of life can play an important part in resilience
Tip 3 - Looking at problems from different angles, from a different point of view, this can help when you are up against a block and not sure what to do.... otherwise frustration starts rearing it's ugly head and nothing gets solved.
