Mental health encompasses far more than the mere absence of disorders. There are a number of dimensions when it comes to positive mental health, one of which is resilience. Resilience is the ability to bounce back when things don't go as planned. Developing resilience can help cope adaptively and bounce back after changes, challenges, setbacks, disappointments, and failures. This paper gives an insight into the main factors contributing to resilience, traits, qualities, and characteristics of the resilient person, skills to develop to become more resilient and strategies to boost resilience. This paper revisits how building core resilience in times of despair would help individual bounce back and cope.
