292 I The Gold In Every Crisis, Challenge or Misfortune

Today on Mastering Midlife:

●      Post-traumatic stress syndrome vs post traumatic growth.

●      We must find the seed of good to thrive.

●      The trick is to find that seed of good faster.

●      Martin Seligman – “Flourish”

●      Napoleon Hill - “Think and Grow Rich”

We have gone through, and are going through a crisis.  You may have been directly affected financially or physical.   The impact may be devastating or mildly inconvenient.  You still are left with making meaning of what has happened (is happening) and navigating next steps.

If we want to thrive (find resilience) we must find the seed of good in what is happening.

“Every adversity, every failure, every heartache carries with it the seed of equal or greater benefit.” – Napoleon Hill, Think and Grow Rich

"In my life, always, always, always, the seed of gold has been equivalent or even greater than the misfortune that happened.” – Mark J. Silverman
