3. Resilient Point (reflection) from my book, Resilience Unlimited, How to Always Find Your Best Path. Identity is the fundamental key to resilience. Knowing who you are spiritually, first, sets the conditions for how you see yourself in your various role identities and your psychological identities, thinking too high of yourself or too low. I love these quotes from St. Augustine from his Confessions and John Calvin from his Institutes. "How can you draw close to God when you are far from your own self." -- Augustine. "Our wisdom . . . consists almost entirely of two parts: the knowledge of God and of ourselves. But as these are connected together by many ties, it is not easy to determine which of the two precedes and gives birth to the other." -- John Calvin. Knowing who you are spiritually gives you a supercharged resilient life because it best defines your roles and thinking.
4. Resilient Vocabulary Word. Resilience. The Resilience Unlimited definition of resilience is NOT to bounce back. It's always finding your best path. Finding your best path presupposes, as Dr. Ron Boyd says, that you can have a path to find, first, in order to bounce back.
