Sheryl Sandberg commencement speech

Overcoming the 3P traps is not just a way to achieve personal resilience in the face of adversity, it is also applicable in relationship building:

Personalize - It is not all my fault, not all my responsibility, nor is it all about me. Don't be easily offended.

Pervasiveness - One dark cloud does not cover all the sky. One bad decision, one conflict does not define the whole person. Don't make the person your enemy.

Permanence - It rains today, does not mean you'll be rained upon the rest of your life. You'll grow and the other person will too. Don't freeze him/her and yourself in time.

Be thankful, be forgiving, think big, think growth. That is resilience.
