As you step into the groove of resilience, you may be shocked to find yourself serving again. You will not sit back, self-satisfied that you made it, hoping you never face another challenge. Rather, you will help other people once more!
The interesting thing about embracing resilience and helping others again is that after a crash, we identify so much better and so much more humbly with people. We move on from an “us serving them” mentality, to a higher, clearer vision of solidarity with all people. We’ve been to the bottom, so we’re not afraid to spend time with other people who have bottomed out…
Resilient people don’t look down on others for needing help, because resilient people are in touch with their own struggles. Therefore, they look people in the eyes and offer hope.
Other people aren’t so scary. They’re just like you, trying to find their way. You can help with that. You can provide pivotal help for someone else who is mired in adversity.
And when you do, surprisingly, you’re there!
Worth Repeating
Greatness is not measured by how much you take, but by how much you give.
