The quality of our close relationships matters more than, say, whether we're in a committed a romantic relationship or have lots of friends.
We have to give our brain permission to search for, and find, answers. This permission comes in the form we talk to ourselves.
The good people in our life are like unintentional bodyguards who give us cover, stop the bullets penetrating our armour and help keep us upright.
Spending time alone in your own company reinforces your self-worth and is often the number-one way to replenish your resilience reserves.
When the goal is one we motivated to achieve we automatically become motivated to change our attitude or outlook.
