Increase Resilience

In my opinion, increasing resilience is similar to increasing strength at the gym. It is slow painful progress that requires a lot of work and dedication. The progress may be so slight that it is nearly unnoticeable.

One key is healthy living. Having a strong foundation of health allows to effectively build upon it and maximize potential. Healthy diet, proper portion size, good sleep habits, normal sleep/wake cycle, daily routine (wake up, exercise, diet, etc), proper exercise, stress management... the list goes on and on.

Mindset is another key. If you tend to stress and over-analyze every situation it will wear you down; you may require more meditative type exercises to center your focus. And never view a challenge or obstacle as too big... if you psych yourself out in the beginning you have already failed.

Day at a time, which is both good and bad.

Good because it means that as long as you do positive shit and avoid negative shit, you will progressively get better.

Bad because that shit ultimately takes a lot of time and there is no magic pill, silver bullet or 2 week long supertoughguycourse that can skip the slow grind of healing and personal betterment.

Your question is a little vague. Can you be more specific?

Do one enlistment in the military. Get in the training and forced misery/boredom. Get out and discover appreciation for things you took for granted prior to joining.

Do an ad hoc monk mode. Work if you must but otherwise withdraw for awhile and heal. Get some rest. Read. Stay offline. Try some basic CBT work to help gain control over your responses and thought process. Don't make any goals or big plans.

Men have been brainwashed into believing they must be building, creating or defending 24/7. However no one tells you what to do when you no longer find anything or anyone worth building or creating for, and nothing worth defending. Rest, brother, and try to be a better friend to yourself.

No one else will.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adversity_quotient

"An adversity quotient (AQ) is a score that measures the ability of a person to deal with adversities in his or her life. Hence, it is commonly known as the science of resilience"

It's just made up buzzword but thought it would be something related for people to research as per your topic posted
