Resilience. Are You A Carrot, An Egg Or A Coffee Bean?

By Ruth Garrett MSc. PhD

$19.95 USD

How To Confront The Challenges Of A Modern World  

The author starts her book with an interesting story; the carrot, the egg and the coffee bean (and I won’t spoil the story for you); however she uses these three everyday examples to show how different people face the challenges of their lives.

She goes on to explain:

• What being resilient actually means, and the building blocks to learning the skills
• The relationship between pressure, stress and resilience
• Mining the gap versus minding the gap
• Resilience cannot be taught but it can be learned
• The art of – reframing, adaptive distancing and positivity
• The power of a sense of humour

If you have been through the mill and survived, then you have probably learned some of these things yourself; however, you may find some additional tips and techniques in this book to help you become even more resilient.

And if you know someone in your family or workplace who seems to suffer endless challenges (and who doesn’t) this book could be a little life saver for them.
