Do you rise or do you fall in the face of adversity? Resilience is a HUGE topic right now – really high on government and education agendas. It’s an interesting skill – linked strongly with optimism and being proactive. Resilience is the ability to respond well to pressure, deal with set-backs effectively, respond well to change and challenges and, basically, bounce back. In this podcast I’ll be talking about why resilience isn’t afixed character trait but an ability and a capacity, which means it can be developed. Research suggests that people who are more psychologically resilient have higher levels of emotional stability, gratitude, purpose in life and altruism. Resilience and happiness definitely seem connected.  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
