Your answers indicate that your levels of adaptability, flexibility and resilience are not as high as you would perhaps like them to be. Try not to worry too much, your levels of resilience can be increased and improved alongside your flexibility and adaptability.

We are all affected by stress or pressure; the key to building resilience is to recognise when you are affected by pressure and having coping strategies to manage it. Start by trying to reframe things in your own mind. If something doesn't go to plan, try not to dwell on it but instead see it as a learning opportunity. What went wrong? What could you do differently next time to make it better? It helps to focus on things that are under your control rather than out of your control and to try to be as flexible as you can be in adapting your approach to facing future challenges. Embrace change!

Look for opportunities to try to practice facing challenges a bit more, for example, is there anything relating to your studies you'd like to change? You could look to challenge yourself by learning a new, fun skill or taking up a new hobby committing to volunteering, or finding part-time work. Set targets you can achieve to bolster your self-confidence. Reflect on your success in these new activities and, where you are not so successful, try to identify what if anything you could do differently to help you in future. Use your support networks as a sounding board for your ideas.

Try to build your supportive networks, including friends, community groups or by participating in societies or sports. Find the right strategy to help you keep calm in stressful situations - eg it might be going for a walk, practicing mindfulness or talking to someone. Looking after your health and getting enough sleep will help you be more resilient.

Make use of the support that's available:
