No matter who we are, what we have, or where we are from, sooner or
later life provides each of us with at least our fair share of
trauma, tragedies, setbacks and curveballs. Like death, taxes, and
increasingly wrinkly skin, these challenges will eventually rear
their ugly heads- it is inevitable. However, the degree to which we
succumb to them, if at all, is to a surprisingly large extent up to
us. Minimizing the extent to which misfortune and tragedy eat away
at the quality of our lives is equal parts art and science, and the
essence of How to be a Rubber Band: A Formula for Living Resilience
Every Day. Resulting from thorough analysis of hundreds of
individuals who have demonstrated varying degrees of resilience, a
widely applicable resilience formula has emerged. This formula can
serve as a blueprint, allowing us to build the necessary elasticity
into our interactions with stressors, facilitating our ability to
stretch and eventually bounce back, while still retaining key
elements of who we are deep down inside. Each variable is explored
within the context of compelling social science and medical
research, and specific suggestions for application provided. The
book is for you if you are willing to: Make successfully responding
to stressors, both big and small, part of your daily existence.
Cultivate a degree of competence and confidence in your ability to
effectively handle life's inevitable challenges; significantly
mitigating fear of failure, unexpected setbacks, and tragedy.
Utilize interactive "Making it Work for You" sections to apply
proven tenets of resilience to your unique situations. Arm yourself
with the knowledge, attitudes, and dispositions we all need to
survive and thrive in the face of trauma. The book invites the
reader to visit the author's website, www.livingresilience101.com
