Resilience Mastery: 11 keys to upgrade human performance

Meer over het boek

The Resilience Institute surveyed over 20,000 individuals to uncover what drives resilience in people and groups globally, identifying 11 key factors. These include familiar traits like focus, purpose, optimism, assertiveness, and bounce, as well as less obvious elements such as sleep quality, vitality, presence, decisiveness, values alignment, and fulfillment. Resilient individuals effectively break down challenges into manageable tasks, preparing both their biology and environment while maintaining focus and determination. Although they face setbacks like anyone else, they possess the ability to bounce back, recalibrate, and recover. Engaging their physical, emotional, and cognitive strengths, they also work to mitigate risks. The book explores each of the 11 factors, sharing inspiring stories of successful individuals. It suggests that humanity is operating on outdated frameworks in a rapidly evolving environment, easily influenced by groupthink and marketing. Discoveries in food and technology have created irresistible temptations, while our nervous system's freeze, fight, and flight responses hinder our progress. To thrive and achieve our dreams, we must cultivate presence, purpose, vitality, and focus, upgrading the challenges we face to align our actions with our values and potential.
