  Resilience from Setbacks: A Process Not an Art

  We've all experienced personal and professional setbacks in our life.
  
  Do you realize that a key piece of the innovation puzzle includes how well you handle and learn from setbacks?
  
  Innovation takes self-discipline, determination, and resilience--the art of bouncing back from a setback; then, quickly learning from it, and adapting ourselves, a process, or even our environment in order to make the most of the setback.
  
  My special guest today on the CFI Radio Show, Mike Robbins, author of Focus on the Good Stuff: The Power of Appreciation will explore the process of recovering from a setback, something you'll want to have in your life toolbox.
  
  Join us for our topic When Setbacks Happen: How Do You Focus on the Good Stuff? as we explore...
  

  1. What “resilience tools” do you suggest for people to have handy in their life toolbox for the times when things do get tough. 
     
     
  2. Why do you think appreciation is so critical? Is it more important than, say, focusing on your goals?
     
     
  3. What simple things can people do on a daily basis to build more appreciation into their lives?
     
     
  4. Moving beyond recovery to discovering new joy and purpose in life requires action. How does appreciation support this process?  
     
     
  5. What types of actions do you recommend for those who want to pursue their passion but don’t know where to begin?

They're learning how to tap their creative, entrepreneurial essence at this stage from the parenting adults in their lives.

  3. What can parents do to “catch up” to support their teens’ creativity if they are just starting out?
     
     
  4. Why developing courage in our teens is important as they transition to adulthood?
     
     
  5. How can parents temper their own fears to allow their children to grow their courage?
