Quotes on RESILIENCE


“A good half of the art of living is resilience.” ~Alain de Botton

"Another day we get to experience is another day we get to learn and grow. An extra step forward is a symbol of your resilience and willpower to become a better version of yourself." ~Steve, The Pride

“Breathe. You're going to be okay. Breathe and remember that you’ve been in this place before. You’ve been this uncomfortable and anxious and scared, and you've survived. Breathe and know that you can survive this too. These feelings can’t break you. They're painful and debilitating, but you can sit with them and eventually, they will pass. Maybe not immediately, but sometime soon, they are going to fade and when they do, you'll look back at this moment and laugh for having doubted your resilience. I know it feels unbearable right now, but keep breathing, again and again. This will pass. I promise it will pass.” ~Daniell Koepke

"Feeling and expressing painful emotions is part of a path of self-discovery. Being resilient does not mean that you won’t experience difficulty. Rather, resilience is a cultivated capacity to respond effectively to difficult experiences. You learn to break down overwhelming experiences into smaller more accessible chunks allowing you to process parts of painful events. You learn to attend to difficult life events of your past without allowing your history to define you. In this way, you expand your lens to focus on possibilities instead of just problems." ~Arielle Schwartz on What is resilience?

“Health is wholeness and balance, an inner resilience that allows you to meet the demands of living without being overwhelmed.”~Andrew Weil, MD

"...Love is the ultimate resilience." ~Vironika Tugaleva

“Resilience is accepting your new reality, even if it's less good than the one you had before”. ~Elizabeth Edwards

"Resilience is all about being able to overcome the unexpected. Sustainability is about survival. The goal of resilience is to thrive." ~Jamais Cascio

"Resilience isn't some fixed trait. It's not elusive, that some people have and some people don't." ~TED Talks, Twitter

"The resiliency of water is most impressed 
  by the conditioning of the storm." ~EA

"To be able to show up with poise and composure regardless of what is going on – that is surely the meaning of resilience." ~Sherri Bishop

"Joy, collected over time, fuels resilience -- ensuring we'll have reservoirs of emotional strength when hard things do happen." ~Brené Brown

"You do not have to be your mother, unless she is who you want to be. You do not have to be your mother's mother, or your mother's mother's mother, or even your grandmother's mother on your father's side. You may inherit their chins or their hips or their eyes, but you are not destined to become the women who came before you. You are not destined to live their lives. So if you inherit something, inherit their strength, their resilience. Because the only person you are destined to become is the person you decide to be." ~Pam Finger, as seen in The Chicken Soup for the Soul, 2nd helping from Rainwater Designs
