Anti-fragility

Anti-fragility

There’s no opposite to the word fragile, people tend to talk about “resilience” in our space. With resilience, you’ve got to be strong, you’ve got to stand up under pressure, which is not a bad thing at all, but it’s still kind of reactionary… What if, and this is where the anti-fragile word comes in, something that harms you or causes stress on you actually makes you better?
