Master your mindset and overcome adversity - Tim Curtis
The Resilience Shield Pty Ltd (‘TRS’) is a 100% Australian veteran-owned business committed to improving
individual and collective resilience. The proprietary Resilience Shield model was developed by Dr Dan Pronk, Ben Pronk DSC, and Tim Curtis, all of whom are
Australian SAS veterans with combat experience in theatres including Afghanistan, Iraq, Sierra Leone and Timor Leste as well as on counter terrorism/ special recovery operations.
Their service experience drove a deep desire to understand exactly what resilience was and – crucially – how it could be developed and improved.
Combining vignettes from the authors' lived experience with cutting-edge academic and medical research, The
Resilience Shield is written for anyone who wants to understand more about the concept of resilience and apply practical methods of developing it within
themselves or their team.
The Resilience Shield is a dynamic, multi-factorial and modifiable model that identifies the key characteristics of resilience and provides a framework for defence against the chronic and acute stressors that impact all of us on a daily basis. The book opens with a discussion of why life is not fair, why there is no happiness without struggle and the virtues of going – always – a little further, before
conducting a detailed analysis of the concept of resilience and the impacts of stress. Readers are then introduced to the Resilience Shield model, with a chapter dedicated to each ‘layer’ of the Shield - Innate, Mind, Body, Social,
Professional and Adaptation.
On Wine with Wita, Tim and I discussed the Resilience Sheild Model and the ‘layers’ involved.
We also discussed strategies to support one’s mental
health as well to overcome adversity.
