Spiritual Resilience is
How You Want To Embrace Challenges
Remember our dictionary definition of
Resilience:
1. the ability to withstand or recover quickly
from difficult
situations, toughness
Or
2. the capacity to spring back into shape
Why do we need Resilience in our Spirituality? Because if you’re alive, you’re still going to be getting lessons to help you grow and evolve to that next level, whatever that may be.
I get so many Alphas coming to me, exhausted,
asking me when the lessons will “stop".
The more you look at your life lessons as things to be avoided, delayed and skipped if possible, the harder they are going to be.
Yes, we all have times where it feels like too much. That usually happens BECAUSE you hit the “skip” button for too long and now you've got a huge pile of lessons to do all at once!
Spiritual Resilience is:
- Knowing you’ll keep getting opportunities to grow for as long as you live .
- Getting
comfortable with being UNCOMFORTABLE whilst in the midst of a lesson.
- Discipline to not put off the painful things that surface WHEN they surface. (Get help if you need it!)
- Recovering once you've
learned what you are to learn or released what you needed.
- Wash. Rinse. Repeat.
I have come to believe that almost ALL of our problems stem from our efforts to
SKIP the work, DULL the pain, not have the difficult conversations and deny the reality that calls us to act.
If you act as best you can, when you are first called to,
you won’t pay the painful “tax” for delaying, suppressing and avoiding.
Spiritual Resilience is less about how you “do” a
specific challenge and MORE about your attitude toward life’s continuous stream of challenges.
Choose to Become Spiritually Resilient.
In Joy,
