3 Habits of Highly Resilient People
<p>For most of us, the idea of <em>resilience</em> conjures up stories of profound heroism in the face of grave injustice — Viktor Frankl surviving the concentration camps or Rosa Parks sitting wherever she damn well pleased.</p>
<p>But resilience isn’t always epic. Sometimes it’s quite ordinary:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Taking criticism well from our spouse instead of getting defensive</strong></li>
<li><strong>Processing grief in a healthy way instead of running to escape it.</strong></li>
<li><strong>Giving that toast at a wedding despite feeling anxious</strong></li>
</ul>
<blockquote>
<p>Even if we’re fortunate enough not to need heroic levels of resilience in our lives, we could all benefit from more resilience with everyday stressors and challenges.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Research shows that highly resilient people tend to possess three common traits or habits: <em>acceptance</em>, <em>purpose</em>, and <em>flexibility</em>. Importantly, we know that these are not simply genetic gifts some lucky few are born with — they’re skills all of us can learn to build.</p>
<p>Whether you’d like to handle relationship conflict more confidently, bounce back a little quicker from setbacks at work, or cope with anxiety and stress a little better, you can learn a lot from the 3 habits of highly resilient people.</p>
