Common patterns in building resilience
- Relying on others. Resilience has a lot to do with leaning on the people around you and with developing strong, supportive connections.
- Trust your own abilities. Keep a list of accomplishments you’re proud of to serve as a reminder of the times you’ve been resilient before.
- Be kind to yourself. Give yourself permission to set physical, mental and emotional boundaries.
- Change your outlook. While you can’t always control the situation, you do have control over how you respond to it. Cultivate optimism in the face of adversity.
- Take the next step, even if it’s small. Build hope. Make a list that includes a goal, steps to achieve it, potential obstacles and strategies to overcome them.
