Many of us have wondered how we would respond in the midst of a crisis.
You hope that difficult times could bring out the best in you. Some
become stronger, more resilient and more innovative under pressure. You
hope that you will too. But you are afraid that crisis may bring out
your anxiety, your fears and your weakest communication. No one knows
when the crisis will pass and things will get better. That's out of your
hands. But you can get better. All it takes is an understanding of how
human beings function at their best, the willpower to make small changes
in perception and behavior, and a vision of a future that is better than
today. In the pages of this book, you will learn to create the
conditions that allow your best self to show up and make a difference -
for you and for others. The "Resilience Series" is the result of an
intensive, collaborative effort of our authors in response to the 2020
coronavirus epidemic. Each volume offers expert advice for developing
the practical, emotional and spiritual skills that you can master to
become more resilient in a time of crisis.
