Learn about being resilient with Dr. Taryn Marie

Dr. Taryn Marie is the epitome of a resilient person. She is serving people to enhance resilience in leadership in life. Besides, she makes people bring best in themselves; she is also an author of flourish or folds the five principles in resilient people. She is a featured co-founder of resilient element 75, and a great researcher. Dr. Taryn Marie addressed in detail her transformation journey like when does she feel it starts. According to her viewpoint, she thinks that we are in most of the fundamental shift; we do not know where our transformation journey starts. We are standing during the fundamental shift as we are on the planet surrounded by a coronavirus. All of us might be figuring out about this, we are from different backgrounds, different cultures, and distinct races. Now, this might be the actual transformational journey for all of us. She started to think about resilience while doing her post-doctoral fellowship in neuropsychology. It is very tempting to see how people recover from the brain or spinal cord injuries and how resilience helps them doing so. Surprisingly, most of the people performed better than prognosis after their treatment in rehabilitation centers. Although some are performing worst also. Therefore, to provide people with authentic information, a detailed study about those people was made. Like whether they are living in urban or rural areas, or whether they have access to transportation. This helps to find out about the factors that are affecting their rehabilitation experience. These factors might be the age, the severity of their injury or the place of that injury. Despite this, their style of living, if it is dependent or independent. Most of the people want to get their independence back after this rehabilitation time. This is when she starts to think about resilience and the facts by which the people are facing challenges. The practices and challenges that we experience in that time make us resilient (if we engage in those practices). She also finds a variety of practices in her own life where she faces many challenges making her more resilient. This is the time when she finds out the power of resilience. Every dictionary has its definition of resilience and its very own concept.  

Practicing concepts that make people more resilient:

Resilience is one of the tremendously important concept and by practicing this; we can become even more resilient. Positive thinking and gratitude towards others make us more resilient. As a society, people do not know much about resilience and doing. For this purpose, data from thousands of people were collected. The data collection includes people asking questions about the challenge that they face in their lives and how do they overcome that challenge. This qualitative study came up with five principles. The first one is vulnerability, as it creates greater resilience. It allows us to engage with other people by letting us know about the resources that might be helping people. The second practice is productive perseverance, which is an exciting interplay.  Angela Duckworth has done exciting research on grit. Grit and resilience are somehow the same. Grit is halfway related to productive perseverance; it helps in maintaining the mission part. In the case of landscapes where everything is continuously changing, the environment, the conditions, resilience there plays an important part. As in the case of the coronavirus, everything is continuously changing, the entrepreneurs and the researchers have to keep an eye on the market and the disruption occurring around as well. Therefore, this is something related to productive perseverance.

What fears we might accomplish?

People face a lot of trauma in their lives as in the case of the coronavirus.  Dr. Taryn Marie faced many challenges by accomplishing goals and going through challenges, this makes her even more resilient. The basic concept is that it is simple but it is not easy to ask people for help. The relationship of asking for help is quite ambivalent in the US that is why she loves to help people. We love to be helpers but oftentimes do not request people to help. The theory is always different from practice that is something she learned from life. It a blessing to ask people for help, this is a sign of giving them importance and opportunity. This is the time where we must take and give help to people near us to balance our needs. This is the time where we can prove ourselves. Helping someone is not a burden it is a blessing though. It allows people to help those who want to help. This will balance the scale between people. People must have pondered on three L’s that are love, light, and leaves. This is a sign of optimism towards people. A lot of researchers talk about vulnerability as it is highly important. Most of the people are living vulnerable lives. Most of the people do not accept the truth and realities making ourselves biased. The only thing by which we can overcome fear is shame bias. Telling the truth makes us overcome our fears. This will help us to diagnose our fears and to make ourselves stay away from being biased. At a time. Dr. Taryn Marie also hid her PTSD from folks because of her place in global leadership development. She thinks that people do not love her, like her or they will leave her after getting knowledge about this diagnosis. Then to overcome it she started talking about these publically on stages and other social places. This makes her closer to people, making her relationship even deeper. This is something making her close to vulnerability especially when she makes her outside person matches the inner one. The gratitude and the generosity that she get from people is something amazing. This is something truly incredible.

Closing-wrap up:

This is the time when coronavirus has a holistic impact on the minds of people. It is very important to get all of the factors we are facing in this world crisis. Gratitude and generosity are highly essential at this time. We can look at these challenges to find gratitude and share it with other people. This makes people learn through our experiences and helps them to cope up with the challenges in this time of crisis.

Finer details:

Paranoia is the word we all believe in, which means that everything that is happening is for us. All of the crises that are happening are definitely in favor of humans. People are staying in quarantine making themselves stay at home. This makes our planet stay away from the toxic materials created by humans. This makes us understand each other even more. This is not happening to us, this is happening to us. So think about the resilience, recognize your power to face these challenges. This could also be a sign of saving wildlife that Chinese people are using as their meals. So think about the growth that you can have in this scenario and time of coronavirus.

Inference:

We are all unique in our ways so embrace the connectedness and use it as your power. Knowing ourselves deeply and trusting our guts helps us to go through these challenges. Appreciate your connectedness with others and think about progressing the environment and taking care of all others out there. This is all we need; this is what makes us more resilient towards this challenge. Stay safe and believe whatever is happening is for you!
