Resilience Practice: Bounce Back

Setbacks happen to everyone. You miss the goal, fail the test, lose the friend, get the no. The feeling that follows is real and it is normal. Resilience is not pretending you do not feel it — resilience is what you do next. It is the skill of bouncing back, learning one thing, and trying again a little wiser.

What this lesson teaches

1Define resilience as bouncing back after a setback
2Name a personal setback and the feeling that came with it
