If 2019’s wellness buzzwords were ‘grit’ and ‘burnout’, 2020 is all about ‘resilience’ – but not as you know it.

“Resilience isn’t about toughening up,” The Future Laboratory’s co-founder Martin Raymond explains in their recent ‘Resilience Report’. “It’s about relearning, rebooting and recalibrating brands, businesses, corporations and, more importantly, ourselves, as we push back against the age of ‘SAFE’ – sanitised spaces, anonymous branding, faltering organisations and erratic responses to those big questions of our age.”

1. Focus on what you can do

Often at work there is much outside of our control, which can leave us feeling overwhelmed. Don’t stress about what you can’t change. Instead concentrate on what you can control or influence. Focus on completing one task to the best of your abilities, which will help you to feel back in control.
