Abstract
The present study examines the concept of resilience and its related problems. Resilience is the ability to return to balance and grow after challenges. Unlike endurance, which refers only to resistance, resilience includes learning and adaptation after crises. This is an acquired skill and plays an important role in mental health and improving the quality of life. Being resilient means having the flexibility to return to normal. Someone who has this characteristic and strengthens it is someone who faces disappointment, failure, and hardship, but can control everything in such a way that a return to the normal course of life is possible. Disasters, accidents, losses, and unpleasant events are not far from people's lives. Someone who knows resilience well and strengthens it in themselves, goes through all this and endures and perseveres in the struggle of difficult days in life. Suppose, a serious accident has occurred and you have suffered serious physical injuries. Enduring the situation and trying to recover, along with not getting discouraged and tired of the treatment process, shows that you are a resilient person.
