Resilience is a crucial ingredient-perhaps the crucial ingredient-to a happy, healthy life. More than anything else, it's what determines how high we rise above what threatens to wear us down, from battling an illness, to bolstering a marriage, to carrying on after a national crisis. Everyone needs resilience, and now two expert psychologists share seven proven techniques for enhancing our capacity to weather even the cruelest setbacks. The science in The Resilience Factor takes an extraordinary leap from the research introduced in the bestselling Learned Optimism a decade ago. Just as hundreds of thousands of people were transformed by "flexible optimism," readers of this book will flourish, thanks to their enhanced ability to overcome obstacles of any kind. Karen Reivich and Andrew Shatté are seasoned resilience coaches and, through practical methods and vivid anecdotes, they prove that resilience is not just an ability that we're born with and need to survive, but a skill that anyone can learn and improve in order to thrive. Readers will first complete the Resilience Questionnaire to determine their own innate levels of resilience. Then, the system at the heart of The Resilience Factor will teach them to: * Cast off harsh self-criticisms and negative self-images * Navigate through the fallout of any kind of crisis * Cope with grief and anxiety * Overcome obstacles in relationships, parenting, or on the job * Achieve greater physical health * Bolster optimism, take chances, and embrace life In light of the unprecedented challenges we've recently faced, there's never been a greater need to boost our resilience. Without resorting to feel-good pap or quick-fix clichés, The Resilience Factor is self-help at its best, destined to become a classic in the genre.… (meer)

The concepts are good. It seems that most of the methods described would work best with two people at least to start. It also feels like the ideas are stretched in some cases and shortened in other instances. The flow is not smooth. ( )

Hypothetically, let’s say you have a problem. It doesn’t really matter how it happened, we all have them to some degree. However, some people seem blessed with the ability to cope with anything that life throws their way. Karen Reivich and Andrew Shatte have both spent their careers studying the unique quality that these people have tempered in order to survive and thrive.

This book is a fascinating one, it covers a topic that is near and dear to many, especially in our crazy, fast-paced modern world. We may be stagnating at work, maybe a relationship with a spouse or significant other is losing its magic, maybe your kids mystify you since they suddenly became different people overnight, or perhaps it is something else that throws you off. This book prepares you for life’s troubles.

The Resilience Factor opens with one of many relatable stories with our focus on a guy named Robert. Robert is living the American Dream; he has a fulfilling job, a beautiful wife, and three children. Unfortunately, things have been getting him down recently. His youngest child was diagnosed with ADHD, his middle daughter used to be vivacious and lively but has now become a teenager which makes her sullen and monotone. His eldest child is out until midnight some nights doing who knows what with strangers. His job has become a place where he puts out random fires, and rumor has it that downsizing is in the works. His relationship with his wife is on the rocks since he barely has any time to spend with her.

The major content of the book begins with a quiz to quantify your current level of resilience after which it discusses the techniques to increase it. The main idea is to reframe the events that happen to you. There is more to it than that, but I don’t really want to write any more redundant sentences.

So all in all, this book was pretty interesting. ( )

The Resilience Factor: 7 Keys to Finding Your Inner Strength and Overcoming Life's Hurdles
by Karen Reivich, Andrew Shatte

Their model is made up of the following 7 scores:

emotional regulation;
impulse control;
optimism;
causal analysis;
empathy;
self efficacy;
reaching out (i.e. not being afraid of making mistakes/not thinking it's better to not act then act and fail).

It might be really interesting to get our neets/families to complete the self-completion test from the book, and validate a hypothesis about the correlation between resilience quotient and social circumstances... Or maybe not!

"How well do you react to unexpected challenges and conflicts? Do you tend to
shy away from problems or bravely face them? Contrary to popular belief, the
secret to resilience lies in accurate thinking, not positive thinking. As the
authors demonstrate, it's not what happens to us but how we respond to what
happens to us that has the greatest effect on the trajectory of our lives. The
Resilience Factor proves that resilience is not only an ability that we're born
with and need to survive, it's a skill that anyone can master in order to
thrive."--back cover
