I would even call this “The ART of being Resilient” as it is essential to everyone, especially anyone starting a new business.

I just had a chance to read your post today via your blog. It really touched home for me. I'm a new coach, and I can find times when I beat myself up if I feel that I don't get everything done in a day that I should. The post taught me that even when you have the best of intentions things can happen, and you need to take out the lessons and the good pieces and go forward from there. Thanks, Rhonda for showing your readers that even someone with your experience and togetherness when it comes to this business, can still have times when you need to step back and regroup. Take care.

I imagine Shakespeare called it intestinal fortitude too. Makes sense to me that it happens in the belly!

Hi Rhonda, I love this post. Resiliance is my friend. Without it I wouldn't be living a life I love and running a business I cherish. I believe a sense of humour, a “can do” attitude and a love for learning and being challenged are the keys to living successfully. I actually call it Intestinal Fortitude, though I think there may be a distinction there.

Resiliency defined is “the ability to recover rapidly…” I find that taking time out each day to slow down, get quiet, and make a connection with our inner wisdom are also a great ways to recover and bounce back from those unexpected life challenges. It's like a “bath for the soul” and helps keep us centered in order to better meet the demands of all that life throws at us. Great topic – thanks for sharing!
