2021 New Year Series: RESILIENCE!

“You really only fail if you fail to learn the lesson." Today's episode continues the New Year mini-series, RESILIENCE! Resilience may be the ultimate superpower! Resilience is the beautiful combination of persistence plus adaptability plus resourcefulness. In short, resilience is GRIT! It's possessing an openness and willingness to consistently grow and adapt. Those who tend to fail lack resilience. They give up. Charles Darwin put it this way, "It's not the strongest nor the smartest of species that survive but the most adaptable to change." Many people think their smarts alone will account for their success only to ultimately realize that they never adapted to their environment or challenges appropriately—they didn't evolve. MG refers to THIS blog post about GRIT and the habits that help to constitute a GRITTY and a resilient character. The key is to recognize any failure as part of a process to strengthen resilience then find ways to channel any challenges to meet desired objectives. So, how resilient are you? As part of this New Year mini-series, be sure to identify which habits—three to five habits— you can begin to program that will move you more quickly to your most important goals for the New Year?
