The secret of resilience
how not to give up on your dreams
Building a system for resilience // The secret of resilience
For the last 25 years I’ve been working with leaders across the board start-up founders corporate executives in government policy makers.
What has always fascinated me is what makes the individuals I work with a success and how they drive the organizations around them to be equally as successful. If I was to equate all the success stories that I have seen with all these leaders it comes down to one factor I’m not factor is resilience.
What made all these leaders successful was for things related to resilience. First was their ability to have clarity and focus, second was the willpower, third was mentorship and forth was a system to develop resilience. The key was the system that enabled them to scale their own personal ability to develop resilience but the question is what is resilience really.
Resilience is how quick you recover from failure. Our leaders have mastered a system that enables them to walk through fire without feeling any heat. They got so used to recovering from failure they became standard procedure or even second nature for them to just get up and fight even harder.
The quicker the better they were at this process to their system the more resilience they had in the resume is they had the more successful they were. For example they motivated many people around them to develop resilience but the challenge was there was no formal system to train people on how to become resilient.

Using resilience to achieving your goals // The secret of resilience
For the leaders I have been working with over the last 25 years that have had a tremendous amount of success have three criteria and how do you define their goals and dreams that set them apart from everybody else.
First in foremost be labeled in goal or dreams. They give the label an exciting name, something meaningful and in many cases even something fun. Second they draw out their goal or dream so they can literally see it in front of them. The more creative the drawing is could be even just a description but as long as it is physically manifested in front of them so they can actually touch it and see it I like to have their success dramatically increased. Third they do not write a vision statement that states where do you want to be but rather do the complete opposite and write a description like it has already been achieved. The secret behind writing it like it has actually been achieved gives you the confidence and affirmation that you will achieve it like it is right in front of you right now.
The better you are at least three points the more resilient you become because you’re explicitly able to visualize, describe and understand exactly what you want no matter how big that goal or dream actually is. This becomes an anchor in your ability to keep reminding yourself of where you’re going so no matter where you are right now you always have resilience.
Resilience is how fast do you recover from failure, in the more explicit your dream or goal actually is the quicker you will recover whenever you’re hit with any type of failure.

Mastering the pivot for resilience // The secret of resilience
Only 1% of people actually pivot in their own personal development. Pivoting is not about change and is not about finding a new way to deal with a goal that you’re going after.
The way that you master a pivot is by actually exhausting your ability to reach the actual original goal that you’re going after. Sometimes on our way to a goal we find a better message to reach the exact same direction we’re going and sometimes we find an even better path to take than the original journey that we were on.
Mastering the pave it actually understands how to go beyond the effort that you have actually made that doesn’t work. This is an extremely constructive process because you’re able to take the elements of what hasn’t worked in transformed into something else that actually can. Being dynamic like this allows you to become flexible, focused, agile and eventually lead to big success.
Many people do not master the pivot because they confuse pivoting with the original goal I have that has not been working. A pivot is a whole new direction taking all the resources, creativity and energy that was created on the original path for something completely new. History has shown as many of the stories many different levels and in many different ways. This is not something new but for many it feels new it is something that you all need to master if we have big dreams and goals.

Mastering life changes for resilience // The secret of resilience
By the age of 25 most people cannot master change. There are two types of people there are those who master change by the age of 25 and become the norm for the remainder of your life which constitutes only 1 to 3% of the population and then there’s the second type which is the remaining are people who transformed only through life trauma.
Being agile and flexible is crucial for us to be resourceful and creative to live a high quality life regardless of the goals or dreams we mean personally have. This is where resilience Plays a very vital role in our ability to achieve whatever dreams and goals we may have.
Resilience is about how fast you can recover from failure in the faster and better that you can do it then the chances of your success in anything that you pursue become a lot better. Without change being a norm in your life then you only leave space for life changing trauma to push you forward. Life changing trauma may sound dramatic; it can be very constructive in many ways. Although we do not like pain sometimes it is the only lesson they can teach us the important things that we need.

Fireside chat // The secret of resilience keynote
A Fireside chat after keynote talk for the secret of resilience.
Sometimes we learn through life changing trauma that forces us to have to become more resilient but only when we actually see it for what it is which doesn’t happen in every single case.
There are many examples throughout history of super achievers showing us how resilience has played a large role in shaping their success but also how they have changed the world. Resilience is not impossible but as a system and tool that enables us to achieve our biggest goals and dreams no matter what the maybe.
Some Days we wake up broken, unmotivated, not willing to get up and fight. Resilience is about how fast we recover from failure and having to get up every single morning motivated and ready to find is not easy but not an impossibility.
When our dreams and goals are explicitly clear to us then there’s nothing between us and them except resilience because that is the tool and method and system that is going to push us forward towards the big dreams and goals that we are all working towards.
