Build resilience by seeking support when needed from "summary" of Resilient by Rick Hanson, PhD,Forrest Hanson
Resilience is not about doing everything on your own. It's about recognizing when you need help and having the courage to ask for it. Seeking support when needed is a key component of building resilience. It's not a sign of weakness, but rather a sign of strength and self-awareness. When you reach out for support, you are showing vulnerability and opening yourself up to the possibility of growth and healing. Whether it's a friend, family member, therapist, or support group, having someone to lean on during tough times can make all the difference.
Building a network of supportive relationships can help you weather life's storms with more grace and ease. It's important to surround yourself with people who lift you up, rather than bring you down. Seek out those who offer encouragement, understanding, and empathy.
In times of crisis or adversity, it's easy to isolate yourself and try to go it alone. But this can actually make things worse in the long run. By reaching out for support, you are creating a safety net for yourself, knowing that there are people who care about you and are there to help you through difficult times.
So don't be afraid to ask for help when you need it. Remember, resilience is not about toughing it out on your own, but about being brave enough to reach out and connect with others. It's through these connections that we find strength, healing, and hope.
