Tough-minded people are resilient. The noun resilience stems from the Latin resiliens “to rebound, recoil.”
For most, life eventually throws us a major curve ball. Like millions, I have had my share of adversity. Growing up in Bangladesh, I have seen war, famine, and inhumane poverty. As an entrepreneur, technologist, and author, I have faced many professional and personal failures and rejections. I had to get tough and learn the art of resiliency to survive and then thrive.
Tough-minded people develop a mental capacity that allows them to adapt with ease during adversity, bending like bamboo instead of breaking. They possess a set of powerful traits.
