Resilience is the key trait of all successful people around the world. Remember how Einstein finally invented the bulb after trials, trials & trials.
Recall how the Wright Brothers didn’t give up on building the first aircraft and were eventually successful with flying colors.
It was resilience that made it possible for Alexander to conquer almost the entire world.
Listing down healthy practices and traits that help make you resilient.
- Mindfulness by being in the present moment. Mindfulness ensures better focus and in turn ensures more productivity. Once your mind learns to be mindful, you’ll realize how you’ll have much more time at your expense.
- Calm and Stillness by being away from distractions. Distractions kill mindfulness, focus, and productivity. You don’t need too much on your plate, you cannot win all the battles. So you need to stop your attention from diverting hither-thither.
- Gratitude for health & access to education, to begin with. Gratitude is said to have brought actual chemical changes in the brain cells, in turn making you more vigilant, vigorous, and quick with tasks at hand. They say that the attitude of gratitude attracts positivity in life leading to a more fulfilled life.
- Balance in study, exercise, and sleep to prevent early burn-outs. Balance ensures long-lasting endurance. Just like a machine needs to be switched off for a while, our minds and our bodies need balances in work and rest for our will to last longer.
- Authenticity to make sure what you’re doing aligns with your ultimate will. Your goals should be defined by your ultimate will, your instinctive likes, and your interests. When your passion becomes your work, your chances of failing to reduce manifold.
- Self-Compassion because you need to motivate yourself. Self-compassion means you are kind to yourself. Talking to yourself with kindness, love, and respect elevates your chances of feeling more grateful and feeling more content. That drives you to perform better.
- Management with goals that are easily achievable. You need the aid of month-based strategies, daily to-do lists, and vision boards to help you manage the entire syllabus. Your plan of preparation segregated into chapters needs to be on paper.
- Reality Check to keep you accountable. An actual reality check of how many hours you’re spending on the study and the strategies that you use gives you a view of the possible solutions. Insights into the problem gradually start showing solutions.
