5.0 out of 5 stars Useful for life Feb 5 2013
By T. Butler-Bowdon - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
A quote from Marcus Aurelius near the start of the book sums it up for me:
"The human soul degrades itself above all, when it does its best to become an abscess, a kind of detached growth on the world. To be disgruntled at anything that happens is a kind of secession from Nature".

It might seem reasonable to be worried or stressed or overwhelmed, but humans are designed to withstand almost any kind of pressure or setback.

The American entrepreneur Ping Fu's world was thrown upside down when as a young girl Mao's Cultural Revolution began. But just before she was told:
"There are three friends of winter: the pine tree [strength], the plum blossom [courage], and bamboo [resilience]. When you are like the three friends of winter, you take everything in your stride with grace".

Robertson's book provides useful ideas, tips and strategies for actually being able to achieve this.
5.0 out of 5 stars Brought me back down to earth May 1 2013

This book helped me focus on true core values and get in touch with why emotions seem to rule too often. "Resilience"gives me helpful practical tools to stay in touch with the moment I'm in. We don't have anything else except this moment. The book makes complicated therapy techniques available for the reader to use without going to a therapist.
