Resilience is the ability to bounce back from setbacks and cope with stress and adversity. Resilience can positively influence work satisfaction, engagement, well-being, and mental health. Resilience is not just a trait that some people are born with, but a skill that can be learned and practiced. According to some sources, resilience can be cultivated and grown by:

• Developing a sense of control over your actions and emotions

• Seeking information and support from others

• Finding meaning and purpose in what you do

• Facing your fears and challenges

• Being optimistic and hopeful

• Building social connections and networks

• Taking care of your physical and mental health

• Learning from your experiences and mistakes

• Embracing change and flexibility

• Expressing your creativity and passions

• Having a sense of humor and fun
