What we do in difficult time?

The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands
in moments of comfort and convenience, but where
he stands at times of challenge and controversy.
Martin Luther King, Jr.


Conquering any difficulty always gives one a secret
joy, for it means pushing back a boundary-line
and adding to one's liberty.
-- Henri Frederic Amiel


Perseverance is not a long race:
it is many short races, one after another.
-- Walter Elliot

Studies have shown that there are characteristics that positively influence resilience:

· Optimism: staying positive prevents needless worrying or negativity

· Engagement: getting involved with life prevents passivity and promotes a “take-charge” attitude

· Mobility: staying active helps control feelings of stress

· Adaptability: being flexible and adapting to change maintains a feeling of balance and calm
