It can be challenging to improve your emotional resilience and bounce back from failure, challenges and crises. You may want to walk away, ignore or forget the issues, or perhaps you may even be feeling hurt, angry, frustrated and upset. If you have difficulty improving your emotional resilience, it can have an impact on your career and personal life.
Improving your emotional resilience is a powerful skill, allowing you to bounce back quickly and effectively and enables you to remain open to new opportunities, conversations and helps you to improve your personal and professional development.
Here are 6 tips to help you to improve your emotional resilience, bounce back from challenges and feel empowered!
1. Keep things in perspective
Just because you’ve experienced a setback, doesn’t mean you’re a failure. Failure, judgment, setbacks and challenges do not quantify self worth or value and these experiences in themselves do not stop you from achieving your goals.
2. Embrace an open mindset
When you experience challenge, failure, judgment or scrutiny it can be easy to become defensive and become closed off to communication, changes and opportunities. However, it’s really important to embrace an open mindset about what has happened, what needs to change and how you will respond! You may not be able to change what has happened but your power lies within how you choose to respond.
3. Failure is not the end, it can be a route to success
Failure is not a negative experience. It may feel negative, but with the right open mindset and willpower you have the power to change your experiences of failure into opportunities which will lead you to success.
4. Use feelings such as anger, frustration as an energetic catalyst to help propel you forwards
Feelings such as these are not negative or bad, but it’s how you use them as a catalyst for either holding you back, or an energetic positive force for change and development.
5. You’ve survived it before, you can do it again!
You will have survived challenging times before. Think back to those times. What helped you to overcome them?
6. Trust yourself!
Keep going and try again! Try a different approach or make changes. Take confident decisive actions, don’t divert, deflect or ignore the issues!
