How to Stay #Resilient in Current Times

Resilience is the ability to effectively deal with, and recover from or adapt to challenging life situations, and it’s even more critical and important for us to build resilience in current times.

A person or team who is resilient is able to cope with crisis situations due to behaviours, thoughts and actions that they have learned and developed.

Some common resilience-building factors include having:

#Attitude Having an optimistic attitude can help you focus on the good things in your life, rather than worrying about things you may not be able to control. This means acknowledging your own strength, resourcefulness and abilities.
