Motivational English Words and Phrases

Words to inspire

Let’s begin with some words you’ll want to carry with you throughout this new year. These can be qualities you can develop, actions you can take, and even aspects of life you can really work on during the next 366 days.

Resilience

Resilience is the ability to withstand adverse conditions and challenges. It can also be the ability of something to bend but return to its original shape. The bamboo plant is a good example of resilience. Although it is known for being durable and tough, did you know that it is also flexible? In harsh weather conditions, it doesn’t break. Instead, it simply bends, allowing it to withstand storms.

Resilience is a quality you want to develop as a person because it means you won’t easily crumble under pressure. In stressful situations, you should be able to adjust and “bend” instead of breaking and giving up.

Mindset / Growth mindset
