Resiliency Day

Members of the 86th Airlift Wing took time Tuesday to focus on four core concepts set forth by Chief Master Sgt. Of the Air Force James Cody. Mental: Approaching life's challenges in a positive way by demonstrating self-control, stamina and good character with choices and actions; seeking help and offering help. Physical: Performing and excelling in physical activities that require aerobic fitness, endurance, strength, flexibility and body composition derived through exercise, nutrition and training. Social: Developing and maintaining trusted, valued friendships that are personally fulfilling and foster good communication, including exchange of ideas, views and experiences. Spiritual: Strengthening a set of beliefs, principles or values that sustain an individual's sense of well-being and purpose. "We believe an Airman's personal and professional successes depend on this resiliency, and feel it is our responsibility to provide the education and resources to help them and their families build it," Cody said.
