Copia de 7 Habits of Highly Resilient Women

We all get stuck, we all get overwhelmed. But how do some women manage their emotions and solve problems while balancing other priorities in life? How do they keep taking action instead of being stuck in worry? How do they keep a positive attitude in times of adversity? Some people call it 'Mental Toughness', I call it 'Resilience'. These habits are found in resilient women all over the world and in every culture. They are not born with it, but they are taught resilience from others around them or they model others who show that 'mental toughness'.

CONSEJO REPRODUCTIVO

Dra. Zuraima Corona Rodriguez ced. esp 8631140
Most of us get stuck in the 'blame mindset' when we are faces with challenges. In this mindset you catch yourself saying following questions:
Why do I have this problem?
Whose fault is it that I have this issue?
How long will this go on for?

Resilient women have trained themselves to have a outcome mindset.

They thrive instead of stressing out because...

Donald Meichanbaum, PhD., of the Melissa Institute states:
"Resilience develops from everyday magic of ordinary resources. Resilience is not a sign of exceptional strength, but a fundamental feature of normal, everyday coping skills."

They are open to new learnings and opportunites

Coping skills come from have an outcome mindset and this means asking the following questions:
What do I want and when do I want it?
What resources do I have available to help me with this challenge?
When I get what I want, what else will improve?
What can I do now to improve this situation?

¡LAS CUIDADORAS TAMBIEN NECESITAN CUIDADOS!

Habit #1:
They have a routine and plan ahead

When resilient women are committed to something that is important to them, they will create a routine around it. Why? They believe that consistently taking action on tasks that are important creates results over time.

Habit #2
They set an intent

Resilient women have a habit of setting the intent before any project, meeting, working with a new client or a new life assignment. Intent comes from the word 'Intendo', in Latin, which means to stretch forward.

Habit #3:
They are flexible and adaptable

Resilient women know that life is not linear experience, but like the ocean that ebbs and flows. Tides come and go at different times of the month, and sometimes you will experience high tides while other times you will experience low tides. Similarly they know that life’s priorities can shift from one day to the next. Therefore, being flexible in decision-making and planning is imperative.

Habit #4:
They view failure as feedback

Resilient women also have the fear of failure, but they understand if they continue to feed the fear of failure, self-sabotage will follow. Therefore, they focus on succeeding by focusing on their goal and doing the best they can.
