Dependent vs Independent

A DIY tendency undermines resilience. Trying to do it all, you begin to spread yourself too thin. It can easily take you down a path full of energy drainers, final destination OVERWHELM!

The research shows that getting the balance right between being independent and dependent is important for your resilience. You need to be able to choose either of these, or any points in between (for example, adopting both) as any situation demands.

Having this flexibility changes your resilience.
