null Different sides of the same coin? 

Resilience and Agility are closely related. Resilience is the ability to recover or bounce back. Agility is a set up able to take advantage of opportunities and stay ahead of the game. However the ability to over come set backs does involve some of the characteristics of agility like the ability to change direction quickly and smoothly.  Resilience for an individual is about confidence...

That is why so many people think they understand it. But it’s not easy which is why so many don’t progress. There are lots of things to learn.
