RESILIENT PEOPLE “Resilient  people  develop  a  mental  capacity  that  allows  them  to  adapt  with  ease  during  adversity,  bending  like  bamboo  instead  of  breaking.”

POWERFUL TRAITS OF HIGHLY

by  Faisal Hoque founder  of:

“Des@ny  results  from  inten@on  -­‐-­‐  our  spiritual  will,  something  that  drives  us  to  do  what  seems  impossible.”

1. They Control

THEIR DESTINY

“Once  we  accept  our  situa@on  and  let  go  of  the  outcome,  it  allows  us  to  adapt  and  even  thrive  in  the  face  of  adversity.”

2. They Accept

THEIR BATTLE

“Some@mes,  if  we  pay  close  aDen@on,  we  see  that  adversity  can  come  into  our  life  to  guide  us  to  our  true  des@ny.”

3. They Use Adversity

AS THEIR COMPASS

"The  strong  manly  ones  in  life  are  those  who  understand  the  meaning  of  the  word  pa@ence.  I  am  not  as  strong  as  I  might  be,  but  I  have  long  known  and  prac@ced  pa@ence.  And  if  my  descendants  wish  to  be  as  I  am,  they  must  study  pa@ence.”  

~  Tokugawa  Ieyasu

4. They Practice

PATIENCE

“LeKng  go  comes  from  having  a  "nonjudgmental"  outlook  toward  life  and  people.  It  allows  us  to  forgive  others  and  ourselves  equally  for  mistakes  and  incompa@bility.”

5. They

LET GO

“Being  truly  in  the  moment  allows  us  to  escape  from  adversity  and  conserve  our  inner  energy.”

6. They Live

IN THE MOMENT

“Our  ability  to  effec@vely  survive,  thrive  and  lead  comes  from  flexibly  riding  out  our  ups  and  downs.”

7. They Develop

FLEXIBILITY

“It  is  important  to  avoid  people  who  bring  us  down,  waste  our  @me,  take  us  backward,  and  have  no  interest  in  our  suffering.”

8. They Find The Right

TRAVELING PARTNERS

“Understanding  exactly  what  we  want  is  the  founda@on  for  our  success.  But  execu@ng  that  success  requires  taking  the  next  step,  

every  day,  no  maDer  how  hard  it  may  be.”

9. They Take The

NEXT STEP FORWARD

“Resiliency  is  an  aKtude;  it's  your  belief  that  you  can  conquer  anything.”
