Resilience is a very selfish practice. It has to be. Your survival and flourishing depend on a selfish approach to resilience.
Being resilient is your ability to adapt to the barrage of demands, that come through life and work, and maintain or regain an optimal state of performance and wellbeing.
The emphasis on being resilient is that it benefits you. It enables you to return to a state where you can be at your best. Being resilient has to be a selfish practice, even if you’re being resilient to help others, you have to help yourself first.
When you shift away from helping yourself first you diminish your resilience capability. You shift into a practice of depleting your resources, which in the end diminishes your ability to be resilient.
Just think about what happens to you when you put the needs of everything and everyone before your own. The needs of everything and everyone are endless. It is an impossible task to endlessly help others if you’re not looking after yourself first.
Taking a selfish approach to resilience is a way to serve yourself first, so you can resource yourself to serve others.
The selfish side to resilience is focussing on what supports you to be resilient. It’s what replenishes your resources. It’s what reenergises you so that you can shift into a state of confidence, clarity, and control. It’s what helps you say, “I’ve got this.”
Being selfish about being resilient is what will help you shift from a state of surviving into a state of flourishing. It will help you to help others.
What will you do today to support your selfish side of resilience?
