Building Resiliency


The Most Valuable Strategy for Conquering Risks

By

When studying the odds of different types of risks, one fundamental fact keeps reappearing.

  • You simply can't protect yourself against every possible hazard in life.

  • There are just too many of them. If you tried to avoid every one of them, you would go crazy just trying to stay alert.

    Every year something is likely to blind side you!

    Everyone's journey through life involves exposure to millions of risks. Each one of these may be highly unlikely (falling around the 1-in-a-million zone on The Paling Perspective Scale) yet nonetheless could possibly kill you.

    However, even though the odds of a particular freak accident happening to you may be very small, the odds of some sort of serious accident knocking you down in your lifetime is very large.

    We all need to face it. There's a high likelihood that each one of us is going to encounter some serious downturns and disasters in our lives.

    It is then that we need a support group of friends and family to help us through the downturn or disaster. This can be one of main sources of RESILIENCY, your ability to bounce back when bad things happen.

    Since you cannot control precisely what risks may knock you down, the best strategy--one that you DO control--is to build up your resiliency.

    How do we teach clients to do that?
    Here are some of the categories we include when teaching individuals and businesses how to build up resiliency.
