Resilience is not a destination. Resilience is a journey. And resilience is a decision that you make often, sometimes many times in one day.
A couple of weeks ago, something happened. There was a miscommunication, and it went really, really badly for me.
When the incident happened, I lost it. All of my symptoms came back... the silver flashing in the corner of my eye, the shaking, the stuttering, being unable to talk, the anger.
And then I had to go do a radio show. And then after that, I had to go speak at a university.
Now, at the time, I didn't see what I was doing was an an achievement because I'd already failed that day.
But less than 45 minutes after this intense mental health breakdown, was able to do a radio show. Yeah, it was not the best radio show I've ever done, but I did it.
But I just have to keep saying to myself, mate, this is resilience. You are more resilient than you would have been able to be even two, three years ago. Resilience is a decision.
Resilience is a journey. And I really hope that I can continue to share yours.
