"To become resilient, it is important to take care of
yourself. Simplify your life. create balance by streamlining and
prioritizing activities. Make sure there
is enough time for faith, fun, and family.
Eliminate unnecessary tasks and give permission to yourself to
rest. Don't be afraid to ask for
help. Pace yourself. Learn as much as possible. Keep a sense of humour. And remember:
the key to resilience is the acceptance that the only certainty in life
is change itself." - Diana M. Amadeo
Simplify your life - what are some of the things you can do without?
Streamline and prioritize activities - do you really need to do everything?
Time for faith, fun and family - do you have a "family night", a time to sit down together to get to know each other better, to play some games or watch tv together?
Eliminate tasks - what can someone else do for you?
Permission to rest - yes, it's ok to take some time to just sit down and relax - not only is it ok, it is necessary for life and health and balance. Read a book, watch a movie, sit out in the sun.
Ask for help - we are not "superman" or "superwoman", people like to be asked for help, it makes them feel needed.
Pace yourself - don't try to do everything at once. If you have a large project to do, do one step at a time, break it into small bites. As they question goes, "How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time." It is how you accomplish anything - one small step at a time.
Learn as much as possible - try to learn one new thing each day. At the end of the year you will have learned 365 new things. Read a chapter of a book each day. You will be amazed at how many books you will have completed in a year. 15 minutes per day = 91 hours in a year.
Keep a sense of humour - learn to laugh at yourself when you make a mistake.
Accept that change is inevitable and go with the flow!
