Developing the Quality

Bolstering your inner resilience requires concerted effort. Some ways in which we can develop our resilience are:

1. Pump up your positivity – resilient people are able to find redeeming value even in negative or trying circumstances. This quality distinguishes resilient people from those who are not.
2. Live to learn – The more you are willing to look upon every happening in life as an opportunity rather than characterise it as good or bad builds your resilience.
3. Open your heart – Acts of kindness and service boost up serotonin and have a cumulative effect.
4. Hang on to humor – Playful humor enhances survival and reduces tension to a moderate level.
