Resilience – The Secret of Harnessing Your Inner Resources
What makes us strong
Two businessmen are bankrupted: how come one of them continues to bubble with new ideas while the other just throws in the towel? Why does a misplaced remark gnaw away at someone for days when others can simply shrug it off?
Stress, burnout and depression are the afflictions of our time. Many of us seem unable to handle the ever-increasing speed and complexity of life. What we need more than ever is a coping strategy – an inner strength we can rely on in times of crisis. Resilience: that’s what psychologists call the mysterious force that keeps us from falling apart and brings us back from the brink in the wake of adversity. Christina Berndt explains what it is that makes us strong and reveals the secrets of harnessing the power of resilience, offering strategies to help steer our way through the jungle of everyday life.
