Your mind…

Your mind and attitudes create either barriers or bridges to good outcomes

– Al Siebert

We all…

We all encounter hardships. Some we see coming; others take us by surprise. It can be as tragic as the sudden death of a child, as heartbreaking as a relationship that unravels or as disappointing as a dream that goes unfulfilled. The question is: When these things happen, what do we do next?

– Sheryl Sandberg

 

Life…

Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it, without knowing what’s going to happen next

– Gilda Radner

Change…

Change what you can, manage what you can’t

– Raymond McCauley

It’s your…

It’s your reaction to adversity, not adversity itself that determines how your life’s story will develop

– Dieter F. Uchtdorf

Taking…

Taking responsibility is the first step on the journey to becoming resilient

– Unknown

The range…

The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds.

– R D Laing

The only…

The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it and join the dance.

– Alan Watts

Successful…

Successful people demonstrate their resilience through their dedication to making progress every day, even if that progress is marginal.

– Jonathan Mills

To improve…

To improve our resilience we may need to do battle with perfectionism; the urge to get things right all the time and thus usually feeling dissatisfied with our less than perfect results – and change our attitude towards mistakes.

– Paul Jackson
