@georgechuks, cultivating compassion definitely helps. When people fail, suffer, are in their darkest moments, showing concern and having a desire to help will contribute to their ability to bounce back more quickly.
An attitude of gratitude is always the right attitude. We focus more on the things we have and less on the things we don't have, won't get--a postive attitude. No doubt, people who are grateful (and flexible) would be more resilient. Thank you for your contribution.
