Very few of us are able to quickly adapt to stressful situations. Harvard psychologist Dr. Courtney Warren shares the powerful phrases that the most emotionally resilient people say every day.
Emotionally resilient people are deliberate in their response to painful experiences. They allow themselves to grieve, remind themselves of what they are grateful for, and focus on what they can control in the moment., I've seen so many people struggle with this. It takes effort, practice and mental strength.1. "I can get through this."
Emotional resilience is associated with grit and mental toughness. There is an understanding that we have to be strong and overcome adversity without letting it break us.2. "I'm not going to let myself be a victim." Being resilient means that when you experience the pain of mistreatment, you shift your perspective from "I'm a victim and powerless to help myself" to "How can I grow from this?""Even though I was a victim in this situation, I won't let it define me or ruin my future."Resilience is associated with a basic acceptance that life isn't always fair, and that we all experience emotional hardships.
Resilient people believe that setbacks and challenges can feel horrible in the moment, but that nothing in life is permanent. It doesn't mean that the pain will go away entirely, but it does mean that we can work to make them less traumatic and damaging to us over time.5. "What can I learn from this?"
Openness to experiences and the ability to shift your perspective from "Why did this happen to me?" to "What can I take from this to help me grow?" can help you better navigate through life's inevitable ups and downs."There's always a gift, even in the darkest experiences — I just need to figure out what it is.
