Emotionally Resilient Living

Emotional Resilience Empowering Words of Wisdom for Challenging Times

@marquitaherald

When blindsided by one of life’s inevitable challenges

it’s natural to feel disoriented and more vulnerable to

feelings of negativity, frustration and sadness.

But what if you could learn to embrace

ALL life’s challenges as opportunities for

growth and a brighter future?

“Resilience is a response from the heart, a test

of attitude, motivation and strength of will to prevail

in spite of obstacles in one's path.”

~Steve Solin, MD

The first step to clear the way for a better future

is to LET GO of the past.

“The mental and physical space we create

by letting go of things that belong in our

past gives us the option to fill the space

with something new and better. “

~Susan Fay West

There are as many roads to happiness as there are

to sadness. There is no guarantee that the one you

choose will be the right one.

Will you risk taking a road into the unknown

for a chance at something better in life, or will

you cling to the familiar and

stay where you are?

Sometimes you just have

to be your own hero …

look inside yourself

and find your

inner strength.

Take the first step.

“I may be changed by what

happens to me, but I refuse

to be reduced by it.”

~Maya Angelou

Whatever challenges or obstacles you may be facing

look for the lessons. Each and every obstacle you

encounter has a positive side to it.

“Sometimes the bad things that

happen in our lives put us directly in

the path to the best things that will

ever happen to us.

~Nicole Reed

When you fight and resist the way your life is, you create

a state of fear and upset that almost always makes your

situation worse.

“In the face of inevitable change, the choice was mine.

Fight until my spirit was weary, or release all resistance

and create something new in my changed world.”

~Dean Jackson

But if you are willing to consider adversity as a

blessing in disguise and master the habits of emotional

resilience, you will have harnessed one of the

most powerful of all life forces.

The only difference between stumbling blocks

and stepping stones is the way

in which you use them.

“Remember, there are no

mistakes, only lessons. Love

yourself, trust your choices,

and everything is possible.”

~Cherie-Carter Scotts

There are two ways to look at transitions … with hope,

anticipation, adventure, joy and wonder, or as the end to

all that is familiar and reliable, and a future that is scary,

uncertain and stress-filled.

Which path you choose take … which

outcome you choose to experience,

is entirely up to you.

You must believe in

yourself before anyone

else will take you

seriously.

So what if it doesn't

come naturally?!

You can train yourself

to believe in your

ultimate victory.

The single most important message in personal growth is

you have the power to change your life

for the better!

Emotional Resilience

is about embracing ALL of life’s

challenges and understanding that

without those experiences

- the good and the bad - you might not have grown into

the strong and capable person

you were meant to be.
