I'm busy</div> <div> preparing to present at the NET-IP conference</div> <div> over Labor Day weekend. NET-IP is a national</div> <div> organization of young, Indian professionals, and</div> <div> I'll be traveling to Atlanta for the conference.</div> <div> I'm speaking on relationships- specifically,</div> <div> common dating mistakes and how to avoid them. It should</div> <div> be fun.</div> <bR> <div> Before that, though, I'm heading down to the ocean for</div> <div> a few days of (much-needed) R&R. I hope you're finding</div> <div> some time to do the same.</div> <bR> <div> This month, our focus is on building resilience, which,</div> <div> to me, is one of the most important self development</div> <div> tasks we can ever undertake. Greater resilience often</div> <div> means greater success.</div> <bR> <div> Enjoy this issue and "see" you next month!</div> <bR> <div> Warmly,</div> <div> Rachna</div> <bR> <div> &*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&</div> <bR> <div> What’s Your Resilience Rating?</div> <div> (c) 2005</div> <div> All Rights in All Media Reserved</div> <bR> <div> Ok, so it’s now August and the lazy days of</div> <div> summer are still hot, humid, and muggy</div> <div> (at least here in Maryland). I haven’t felt</div> <div> like doing much, and have been playing hooky</div> <div> a little more often.</div> <bR> <div> What I have been doing, though, is thinking</div> <div> about the idea of resilience: the capacity</div> <div> to bounce back from life’s rejections. Part of</div> <div> stepping out of your comfort zone (see last</div> <div> month’s issue if you missed the article) is</div> <div> being able to tolerate rejection- and keep</div> <div> moving ahead anyway.</div> <bR> <div> If asked, I’d have to say that resilience</div> <div> is the number one life skill that any of</div> <div> us can have- it’s the skill that allows us</div> <div> to push ahead to our goals and dreams, even</div> <div> when people say “No!” along the way. Resilience</div> <div> is the key factor in being able to overcome</div> <div> temporary setback and keep it from becoming</div> <div> permanent failure.</div> <bR> <div> So how about you? What’s your resilience</div> <div> rating? How quickly do you move on from events</div> <div> that aren’t “quite right” to focusing on how</div> <div> to move ahead from here? Resilience is a skill</div> <div> that can be learned- and you get better with</div> <div> practice.</div> <bR> <div> How can you start boosting your resilience</div> <div> rating? First, take extra special good care</div> <div> of yourself. Next, manage your negative</div> <div> feelings and critical self talk. Third,</div> <div> keep a positive attitude- if you think about</div> <div> the best, you very often get it. Fourth</div> <div> (and this is super important)- prepare</div> <div> yourself to try again. Analyze what happened</div> <div> last time and make adjustments as needed.</div> <div> Finally, you have to actually try again.</div> <div> You can’t build resilience without it.</div> <bR> <div> If there’s a place in your life that you’d like</div> <div> to boost your resilience in, start now. When</div> <div> you are no longer afraid of rejection, you are</div> <div> able to take more risks. And with greater risk</div> <div> often comes greater reward.</div> <bR> <div> Therefore, better resilience= greater reward.</div> <bR> <div> So what are you waiting for?</div> <bR> <div> &*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&</div> <bR> <div> Opportunities & Resources</div> <bR> <div> *Kids & Cell Phones: What Every Parent Should Know*</div> <div> I wrote these booklets to support my recent appearances on</div> <div> national TV discussing 10 pros & cons of giving your child a</div> <div> cell phone.
