Discussing Resiliency and talking through the questions from our Warrior Mindset online chat about the same topic with special guest and fellow Martial Artist Heather Dughaish.

Q1: What does the word “resilience” mean to you? What action, character, story, song, or movie comes to mind?

Q2: Name one to three factors currently testing your resilience (in work, finances, or wellness). Let’s put a name and a face on our pressures.

Q3: One definition of resilient is: “able to withstand or recover from difficult conditions.” Tell me about one time in your life you’ve been or felt resilient. (Note: this can be very ordinary or very extraordinary. Both matter.)

Q4: What are some different myths you’ve heard about resilience? What quotes, mindsets, or thinkers get resilience wrong?

Q5: Okay, so, we agree part of being resilient is experiencing stress, change, or hardship — acknowledging those factors are real and not sweeping them under the rug. What are different ways you face and deal with your stressors? What are your healthy outlets (meditating, journaling, counseling, exercise…) for experiencing stress?

Q6: Another way psychologists (and you all!) say we build our “resilient muscles” is connecting with other people. Who are your people and how do you connect with them?

Q7: A framing that sometimes helps me...imagine you’re talking with someone younger than you. They’ve taken some recent hard knocks, are discouraged, and want to build their resilience. How would you encourage them?

Q8: Looking forward...what’s one area of your life where you’re looking to build more resilience in 2021? Where do you want to make the most improvements?
