Resilience is the capacity to overcome and adapt to challenges and stress. It’s a combination of your attitude, outlook and response to difficult situations. It’s about how you respond to life’s challenges and how you recover from them.

People with resilience can see their experiences as learning opportunities rather than tragic events or sources of weakness. Whether we like it or not, we all have to face challenges in our lives. How we deal with these different situations determines the strength of our character and can make us stronger individuals in the long run. Resilient people can maintain a healthy balance between their personal and professional lives even in adverse circumstances.
