Calm In The Storm



    How does a person achieve anti-fragility? This concept supersedes resilience, because it results in exceeding one's capabilities after enduring hardship. The goals are becoming the metaphorical "steady hand" and being the voice of reason amidst chaos. When navigating through life's storms it's those who are battle-hardened that perform the best.
    Never in our lifetimes do we need individuals that exude these characteristic than now. The ability to remain calm and rational when dealing with complex issues is in great lacking. The proactive are prepared and the reactive are vulnerable to life's circumstances. There has to be a certain level of acceptance to suffering and conflict to our lives. It's an unavoidable part of our existence and needs to be dealt with by steadfastness. 
    You can do things the "easy way" or the "hard way" the choice is yours. I've observed the more a person tries to avoid their problems the greater and more numerous they become. The only way through hell is one foot forward at a time. Be the bison that walks into the storm instead of the coward that runs and succumbs to it...
