After a Crisis or Trauma
Part 2
by Susan Dunn

Page: 1 2

5. New interests.

Because we change through a crisis, we often take up new interests. You may become interested in a different sort of career, for instance, or decide you want to marry and have a fulfilling relationship, where you didn't before, or to give more back to your community in means of volunteer service. Very often it amounts to a "new you" and you extend your boundaries.

6. Less willing to compromise.

Often we find after a crisis, we're more willing to change things that need changing, and to take action when it's necessary. The strength you discover in a crisis leads to a great sense of personal power; your ability to effect what's going on around you.

7. Not taking anything for granted.

Once you discover what really matters, you are much more willing to put the work in. This could include meaningful relationships or work. Losing something important, or almost losing it, brings thing into a new perspective. You don't take things for granted you used to.

8. An appreciation for the now.

There is nothing like going through a trauma or crisis to make you appreciate a quiet, "normal" day. Suddenly a day that formerly might have seemed boring to you is full of wonderful things - among them, just the fact that there's nothing awful going on.

9. Handle stress better.

Your toleration of stress will have become elevated, and you can handle everyday stress better.

10. Spiritual growth.

Going through a crisis is being where the rubber hits the road. You question many things, including your faith, and can come out much stronger. Questions arise that wouldn't have arisen otherwise, and so you grow.

All of these things are possible when you go through a crisis or trauma. One of the most important things is not to stay in isolation. Many people understand after going through a crisis how helpful other people can be, and how much we need one another.

Coaching and counseling can also help you in time of need. Resilience means being able to bounce back after loss, failure, and misfortune being able to retain you hope and enthusiasm for the future.

While no one wants to have a crisis or trauma occur in their life, it can be a tremendous growth opportunity. Studies have shown that isolation, which means emotional isolation, is one of the worst things you can do for your health. Reach out for the help you need and stay connected, and work on your emotional intelligence skills. It's the emotionally intelligent thing to do.

Most of the arguments to which I am a party fall somewhat short of being impressive, owing to the fact that neither I nor my opponent knows what we are talking about.
