Resilience: Activity 1.2
In this activity, we will ask you to reflect on different life events and whether you would classify them as good or bad stress. Studying in an academic program involves stress, and whether it’s eustress or distress may depend on how much time you have to dedicate to your studies. We will also ask you think about how much time it takes you to feel comfortable and prepared (i.e., in the eustress zone) for academic work.
