To Stacey resilience is an opportunity for growth. It is the ability to respond positively and quickly to change and diversity. It is the ability to see the opportunity in adversity. It is shifting the way we look at things – shifting the perspective. Resilience is knowing what to quit and knowing whether what you are quitting is not right or difficult.
