It was all good until it wasn’t. The company said there was no need to worry. I wasn’t expecting the change, but it happened anyway. I was replaced.

This seems to be a common story these days.

Traditional notions of resilience suggest that I just needed to figure out a way to bounce back from this bout with adversity. As in finding a similar position somewhere else.

What if we see resilience as an opportunity to grow and become even stronger?

By using this experience as an opportunity to learn and develop new skills, you not only adapt to the changes at work but also become even stronger and more versatile in your abilities.

This kind of resilience requires a growth mindset and a willingness to embrace change and uncertainty.

Learn, adapt, pivot, and build something new.
