How to build resilience as a parent
|
A lot is said about the importance of building resilience in children, and just because you're an adult, it doesn't mean resilience matters any less.
As a parent, partner, worker and friend you're bound to encounter different challenges at different times, and your ability to deal with these ups and downs, and move on positively, is the ultimate life skill.
To help you master your mindset and overcome adversity, three SAS veterans – Dr Dan Pronk, Ben Pronk DSC and Tim Curtis - have written a book called The Resilience Shield.
