Personnel Resilience

In class Wednesday my group discussed Personnel Resilience. This topic is something that I feel strongly about and have a strong sense of personnel resilience. For pre-work my group assigned a TedTalk and test to measure personnel resilience. Often times TedTalks are long and challenging to follow but the one we watched was interesting and motivating. The speaker discussed challenges that she had to overcome to fulfill her dream of becoming a news reporter for CNN. On her way to becoming reporter she talked about the four steps she used which were; Trust your struggle, do not believe in competition but creating what we want, To give, and Success comes when opportunity meets preparation. These steps are key to building personnel resilience. 

On the test I scored a 92 which is very high personnel resilience and I found this to be true. When I am placed in different situations I feel strongly in keeping my emotions in check and also comfortable in confronting someone if I feel they are wrong. Personnel Resilience is built over time from situations and relationships. The saying "what doesn't kill you makes you stronger" is something I find myself being more realistic every day. We need to roll with the punches and use the last to work towards the future.
