3-Minute Theory: Build Resilience (Without Breaking Yourself)

The great Tony Robbins say that success is 80% mindset and only 20% is skills.

We believe that becoming resilient is the key to success.

We explored the kind of resilience that isn’t glamorous, the type built in failure, fatigue, and being misunderstood.

Here’s what we pulled from it - in 3 minutes, 3 angles, 1 insight.

MIND – Think

“Hard times make hard men. Hard men make easy times. Easy times make weak men. Weak men make hard times.” - Probably the quote of all quotes.

Resilience isn’t just about surviving, it’s about becoming someone who can carry weight.

When things get tough, the question isn’t “How do I escape this?”

It’s “Who do I need to become to handle this?”

BODY – Do

Choose the stairs. Literally.

Constantly create resistance in your life.

  • Wake up on your first alarm. (the hardest one)

  • If you see the elevator/lift, choose the stairs to walk up.

  • Do one more rep even when your muscles are screaming.

Small decisions to lean into discomfort build the muscle of resilience. Train it daily, not because it’s trendy, but because one day, you’ll need it. (Unchosen suffering).

HEART – Feel

Ask Yourself:

“What part of me needs to die… for something stronger to be born?”

Resilience is emotional. It's grief for the version of you who couldn't handle what the new you is facing head-on.

Let them go.

Welcome what's next.

A Piece of Us

Rupert: “How the fuck do I even begin to sum up these last 7 days? I’ve been cracked open in ways I didn’t even know I needed.

This wasn’t just a trip – this was a shift. A full-body, full-soul shift. I put myself in spaces where I could immerse in culture, music, and people.

I let go of needing control and just let the experience swallow me whole. I took a chance on myself. For once, I didn’t second guess.

I loved myself. I was myself. No masks. No edits. Just raw, honest Rupert. I opened my heart, my mind, my body, and lived with gratitude flowing through every vein. I wore honesty and accountability like a badge on my chest. And I felt. God, I felt. Every single moment – the highs, the tears, the little flashes of silence between beats – all of it.

I listened deeply. To my body. To my gut. To the signs the universe kept throwing at me. And for the first time in a long time, I trusted myself fully. I can say, hand on heart, I made a decision this week that shifted my vibration and the whole course of my life.

I became the man I always knew I could be. A man of honesty, integrity, and openness. I finally understand what it means to live by my virtues. And fuck… it feels good.”


Konrad: “Over the last seven months, we've fostered a dog named Chip. On Friday, he went to his forever home. Whilst I'm happy that he finally found a place where he will be loved until his rainbow day, I couldn't help but burst into tears...

He was a friend – more than a friend – he was a family member who brought so much happiness to our home. Since Friday, I've kept thinking about him, and I hope he's happy in his new home. He will always have a special place in my heart.”
