Got Resilience?
11/2/2010 2:06:56 PM

If you are going to be successful in your self-help and personal development efforts,or in life in general for that matter, resilience is,and always will be,a key factor!

Many of you know a thing or two about being resilient,having the ability to get up, or bounce back,in a timely manner, after a challenge has derailed your best efforts.

This ability to get up and keep moving successfully, is not developed over night.
It results from your belief in your goals and dreams as well as a belief that you really deserve exactly what you are striving to achieve,and you believe that it can actually happen,and that you can do it.
Through many trials and errors, you have made a decision to keep moving forward no matter how treacherous the terrain.

Over the course of your life, you have come to realize that if you are going to be successful in your self-help and personal development efforts,or in life in general for that matter,resilience is,and always will be,a key factor!
Of course, some challenges are monstrous, and they demand that you treat them accordingly, but you must,at some point, decide to assess the damage,make the necessary adjustments, get up,and keep moving toward your goals, a bit bruised, but much wiser, stronger,and with a greater sense of self and a stronger determination to succeed.

Success, I am sure you agree, demands the best from each of us; you and I will always be able to give our best when resilience is a part of our success strategies.
So,I say to you: learn the lesson(s) the challenge was designed to teach you; get up,get back in the fight,stay the course; by doing so, you will become the self assured,
competent,successful, over-comer you were created to be.

What next?

* Share some of your true life stories of resilience with me;

* Decide now that you will stay with your goals until they are achieved;

*Look for the lesson(s) each set back has to teach you;

* Get the needed help as quickly as possible,and keep moving forward.
