We are often in awe of those who accomplish amazing feats, triumph over adversity, or dare to go on what appears to be rugged adventures.

But how often do we stop to ask how they got there?

They got there through the spirit of resilience, an attribute one must cultivate to succeed.

Building resiliency does not happen in a day. It is a lifelong process.

How do you respond when life challenges you while working towards specific goals?

Do you fold your hands and give up, or stop, vent, and then look at how to move forward, even if it means making some changes?
