Relationship- What to do when you start losing courage: Develop resilience within yourself, 6 benefits of resilience and 6 expert advice

“When your courage starts breaking, just remember this

There is no crown or throne without hard work

Find your destination in the darkness

A firefly is never dependent on light.

These inspirational lines teach us that no matter how many difficulties come in life and even when we start losing courage, we should never give up.

Often we get disappointed when difficulties come, lose our courage and accept defeat. We forget that life is such a journey, in which sometimes there is sunshine and sometimes shade. When there is shade, we are happy, we celebrate that moment. But as soon as sadness comes in our life, we get disappointed. Sometimes so disappointed that our courage breaks.

It is in these difficult times that 'resilience' comes in handy.

Although the literal meaning of this word is flexibility. But in life it means not bowing down in front of difficulties, not breaking down. In simple words, to remain steadfast in this journey even after something bad happens in life. To have the ability to be happy and successful even in difficult times.

Well-known neuropsychologists and authors Rick Hanson and Forrest Hanson have written a book on this – 'Resilient.'

This book explains how resilience keeps us strong in difficult situations. It motivates us every day to deal with family problems, job difficulties, stress and health problems, resolve matters with others, recover from chronic pain and just keep going.

Dr. Rick Hanson explains how to develop your inner strengths in difficult situations no matter what life throws at you. Being resilient will help you feel less stressed, pursue opportunities with confidence, and stay calm and focused in the face of adversity.

What is the role of resilience in difficult times

Many times we feel that some people are able to deal with difficult times better than others. While everyone's situation is different. It is true that people with resilience are able to deal with difficult times better. This is a quality that helps you to better tolerate the feelings of stress, anxiety and sadness that come during difficult times. With this, you are also able to find a way to recover from failures.

Resilience helps to develop a positive attitude

We all go through bad times in life at some point or the other. Sometimes we experience disappointment, pain and change. Sometimes we don't even have anyone to share our pain with. In such a situation, we keep suffocating alone and sometimes even lose courage. But developing resilience can help you maintain a positive attitude and get through bad days.

Make life's challenges an opportunity to develop resilience

If you are highly sensitive to emotional distress and have trouble coping with difficulties, it is possible that you have never faced adversity before in your life. In such a situation, you need to develop resilience.

Past experiences can help you cope with today's challenges. Even if you've struggled in the face of adversity in the past, you may be able to identify ways you coped that didn't help.

So learn from your past experiences and take lessons from them. Gain new experiences in your life and be prepared to face the challenges that lie before you.

Developing resilience can have the following benefits in your personal and professional life:

To achieve all these benefits, it is important to develop resilience. For this, you should gain new experiences in your life, face the challenges that come your way and work to strengthen yourself. Keep in mind that challenges are the opportunity to develop resilience. That is why Kunwar Narayan wrote that-

when you're on your head

you'll catch the first snowstorm

And you will not tremble

then you will find it doesn't matter

to win everything

And don't lose courage till the end.
