    Key Learning Points
    1. Cultural norms shape communication—including acceptable “lies” people tell.

    2. The brain’s survival mode reacts instantly and often overrides resourceful thinking.

    3. Part X—the inner critic—tries to keep us “safe” by discouraging change.

    4. Resourcefulness comes from tapping into the creative, empathetic, and executive functions of the brain.

    5. Resilience is about navigating uncertainty, not finding one “right” answer.

    6. Collaboration requires understanding conflict styles and using flexibility, not force.

    7. Recognizing when you’re in survival mode is the first step to shifting your mindset.

    8. Positive self-talk works best when it’s curious and open-ended, not cheerleader-style.

    9. Distraction and trusted allies can help you reset from emotional overload.

    10. The five powers of the resourceful mind—empathy, exploration, innovation, navigate, and focused action—help guide better decisions.
