Among other things I am the daughter of a carpenter. Anyone raised by a strongwilled father on a mission would understands that if your father is a carpenter, that made you a carpenter as well. During my apprenticeship days when I was learning the trade, one of the first lessons my father would stress is “use the right tools for the right job”.
Building yourself, lifestyle, organization they all require specific tools for specific outcomes. Putting a conscious effort into building up your resilience is no different. But how? How do you build something you cant see, and you cant touch? It’s you start with what you know contributes to it. Outlook, Understanding and Output. What you see, What you Know, and as always What you do. These things can all be changed rearranged and upgraded for any scenario at any time.
These are the things that you control. If you don’t have a clear enough view of the problem, change your view make it wider or maybe you see too much to solve the problem, narrow your scope. Now with this new perspective, or new angle of vision, it demands knowledge that is relevant to the new scope. Maybe you need to increase your knowledge (learn something new) or maybe it’s a lesson you’ve learned long ago that’s just now coming into focus either way obtain necessary information for this task.
Lastly, your reaction, in the end, it’s what you do that matters. Take the view and new information and apply it accordingly to the specific setting. Sometimes a fix all is not whats needed. Sometimes a single use tool is all that’s needed. Wondering what tools you need. Give me a call, we can figure it out together.
