  • And I I I want to like if there's one of these that I think is one of the most workable for many of you and also probably the one that I would encourage you to work on the most if you don't have what you want in life, it would be this one.
  • I mean tolerance is amazing too, but I would say maybe tolerance and resilience together.
  • And so, as you're thinking through this, I would encourage you, one, you can think about yourself, but also like who are the people in your lives who are like, man, something throws so and so off and it's like they're in a funk for like months.

0:00is resilience. And this one's a really interesting one. And I I I want to like if there's one of these that I think is one of the most workable for many of you and also probably the one that I would encourage you to work on the most if you don't have what you want in life, it would be this one. I mean tolerance is amazing too, but I would say maybe tolerance and resilience together. But let me explain. So resilience is after I'll give you the formal definition, then I'll give you the third grade definition. So after a change in behavior has occurred from a bad thing, how long it takes you to return to a new baseline. So once bad happens to you and you start acting out, how long does it take you to stop acting out?

0:35That's what resilience is. It's a measure of time. So do you bounce back in five minutes? You take a couple breaths. You walk outside. You come back in. You're good to go. Right? If so, you have high resilience. So even if it's, now mind you, even if it's really steep, even if you like go crazy, but then you come back real fast, you still have high resilience. You might have low fortitude, but you have high resilience. You're back. All right.

1:00Or does it take you five years to bounce back compared to the five-minute person? You have low resilience. Look how long it takes you to to come back to normal. And so, as you're thinking through this, I would encourage you, one, you can think about yourself, but also like who are the people in your lives who are like, man, something throws so and so off and it's like they're in a funk for like months. That person is low resilience, right? If you have high resilience, what's interesting about it is that like even if something rock completely rocks you, you can come back and it doesn't massively affect your life because you're like, I'm I'm already back. Are you recovered?
