Brown, Angeline Lawrence, Denise Hanney, Diane Blake, Fayola Delica, Glenda O. Cook, Gwen Webber-McLeod, Kim Cheatham, Mabel Jones-Hansford, Mellanie Lassiter, Teresita Glasgow and Valeria Robinson-Baker-this compilation speaks to talented women leaders and entrepreneurs with the purpose of helping to turn their restlessness into a strategy and showing them how to maintain their spiritual and emotional center during setbacks. This collaboration is purposed to give voice to suffered anxieties so other women leaders may design well-thought-out actions, rise above negative perspectives, thrive under pressure and maximize career and personal performances. This book is full of powerful tips, strategies with a proactive resilience exercise in the back and a link to a confidential survey for measuring your character strengths. Regardless of your social status, financial position or relational connections, your true ally is resilience. After reading Resilience, you will know how to: -Recognize and remove the enemies of resilience-the unhelpful thoughts, actions and reactions, or the outside obstacles that automatically show up to influence you. -Override destructive behavior by turning reactions into resilience-learning to live with intention by letting go of what you cannot control and living in harmony with what you can. -Build resilience through the power of living life by design so you can realize a sense of purpose and reach higher levels of identity and self-actualization, letting go of victim-consciousness and accepting personal responsibility. -Pursue resilience by developing the attributes of self-awareness, patience, perseverance, inner power and becoming action-oriented to successfully advance after adversity.
