Looks at why some people are better at coping with life than others, where you personally are on various aspects of resilience and finally how to build and improve your personal resilience.
Based on research studies and interviews with a group of highly resilient individuals, the book looks at teh various different aspects of a resilient individual.
The short summary is that these individuals:
Are open to new ideas, curious
Assume the best rather than the worst of other people
Find opportunity and risk equally fascinating (and understand the link between the twois crucial to success)
Embrace positive change
See what needs to be done and are happy to lead the way.
Prefer dealing in transparency and honesty than obscurity and deceit.
And perhaps most important of all they tend to be optimistic
