The Power of Resilience: An Unorthodox Guide to Picking Yourself Back Up in Hard Times

THE BOOK YOUR PARENTS WISH YOU HAD READ, AND YOU WILL BE GLAD YOU DID An unorthodox guide to picking yourself back up is not your ordinary standard book on the power of resilience. Why I say this book is heretical. First, I do not believe the traditional approach to cultivating emotional and mental resilience and the willpower to overcome adversity works for everyone. On the contrary, the number of people hospitalised for stress, depression and anxiety has tripled in the past couple of years. In these uncertain times, we must radically reinvent our thoughts, attitudes, behaviours, and emotions to stay alive if we intend to hang around for a long time. Science has proven that chronic stress can cause many illnesses, including high blood pressure, digestive problems, and weak immune systems-other emotional and mental symptoms of chronic stress include depression, panic attacks, anxiety and irritability. But the truth is that adversity, whether personal failure, disappointment, or setback, is an unpleasant fact today. We will have to be ready to deal with it at some point. But the nature and depth of the adversity will not significantly impact your emotional and mental health if we deal with it appropriately. But how we deal with it determines how we emerge unscaled and ready to take life on gain. Life is not that simple; sometimes, it can be challenging and brutal. Sometimes we are overwhelmed by the sheer magnitude of our problems. Despite our perseverance and persistence, we become discouraged, sad, depressed, anxious, fearful, and uncertain about the right path to walk. And for a moment life seems meaningless, and we give up. This book will change your life, help you re-engineer and re-wire your brain waves, eliminate all your fears and emotional blockages, and finally set you free like a hungry lion set free from captivity. It will teach you how to bounce back and give you the blueprint to start again-just harnessing the unlimited potential of your mental powers and inner strength to conquer the emotional weaknesses holding you back from making progress.
