Resilience is built with three main ingredients: perspective, pivot, and purpose. When we have the ability to put things into perspective, we can properly assess a situation rather than living in discouragement. Reality remains the same, but our perspective is focused. We need the ability to pivot, so when we hit a wall we think of ways to scale it, knock it down, or find a way around it. This is because we know our purpose in all of this. If we don’t know our purpose, resilience will be difficult, so the first step is to discover your purpose. Join me in discovering your purpose so you can grow in resilience.

Winning: Idea #472
I know myself well enough to know that I like to win. Always! ‘We all want to win and to be right, but we don’t always need to be in competition with others. We don’t influence others by impressing them about our own greatness, but by impressing upon them how wonderful they are. If you have the choice to be right or the choice to be kind, choose to be kind.’ (J.Maxwell) This is definitely a growth area for me, and I’m trying to remember that it doesn’t matter if I win but hurt others along the way, as in the long-term that’s a huge loss for me. Kindness trumps winning every day.

Perfection: Idea #471
One of my managers once told me – never wait for perfection before proceeding. ‘One of the greatest handicaps is to fear a mistake. You have stopped yourself. You have to move freely into the arena, not just to wait for the perfect situation, perfect moment… If you have to make a mistake, it’s better to make a mistake of action than one of inaction. If I had the opportunity again, I would take chances.’ (F.Fellini) Will some actions fail? Undoubtedly – but don’t let that stop you from trying again and again – you will grow through the process.
