A straight-up guide to getting through life's ups and downs
 Jake Bailey knows all about adversity and tough times.
 Jake gave an inspirational end-of-year address as head boy at Christchurch Boys' High School from his wheelchair, only a week after receiving a diagnosis of an extremely aggressive form of cancer. His incredible speech went viral and touched the hearts of millions.
 Once in remission, Jake's experience left him with questions: how do people overcome adversity? Are we born with these skills, or can they be learned? And if so, can we not only recover from immense setbacks but even grow?
 Jake knows first-hand the powerful impact of resilience, and through his study in positive psychology is driven to help others by passing on the knowledge that he's gained about resilience.
 Whether it is learning to slow down, finding the positives or humor within, not sweating the small stuff, or recognizing the importance of having good people by your side, this book draws on the latest evidence and research to show you what to do when life throws you a curveball -- not only how to cope but how to thrive.
