Resilience

"Resilience is all about being able to overcome the unexpected. Sustainability is about survival. The goal of resilience is to thrive." ~Jamais Cascio

Life contains plenty of challenges, but I am able to anticipate most of these challenges thoughtfully. I am able to remain calm and resilient, which helps to inoculate me from the effects of life's external pressures.

Through proper preparation, I am ready --and eager-- for any adventure.

By putting myself out there into life's journey,  I can experience beauty and wonder in ways that are not possible staying within my comfort zone . The success or failure of my my life journey depends on far more than how I prepare for my excursion through life than on the circumstance themselves.

I do not shy away from challenges simply because they have the potential to stretch or stress me temporarily. Instead, I plan ahead, knowing that I can handle anything with adequate preparation.

Situations may be hard periodically, but I remain composed and tuck my head as I march into the wind. Doing so may not always be pleasant, but because I am fully prepared, I am able to deal effectively and calmly with any challenge that comes my way.
