Episode #10 - Resilience

Life After: From Surviving to Thriving

I’ve got a few quotes for you this episode. Unfortunately, I don’t know where several of our quotes come from. If you happen to know…please let me know so I can give proper credit!

Your mind is a powerful thing. When you fill it with positive thoughts, your life will change in a positive manner.

Doubt kills more dreams than failure ever will.

Strength doesn’t come from what you can do. Strength comes from overcoming the things you thought you couldn’t do.

And finally,

You become what you think about most of the time ... so think about what you want to accomplish. – Earl Nightingale

In this episode, we are going to talk about resilience. This is really an interesting topic because whether you refer to it as resilience, or mental toughness, or grit, there is a depth and breadth of information out there. Like mindset, it is really popular right now and how people talk about resilience is multilayered and diverse. We’ll do a quick introduction to resilience and then will focus on how to build your resilience and how to maintain high levels of resilience when you need to.

I also want to mention that last week I started a FB Live series on strategies for dealing with narcissists. So much of my personal experience around building my own resilience comes from managing long-term relationships with narcissists. So, if you want a whole bunch of tips, outside of this episode, then keep an eye out for the FB lives as they get released over the next couple of months. I will also be uploading those to YouTube, in case it’s easier to catch them that way. Just look for Locate Coaching on YouTube to find my channel.
