Abstract
» Distinct from the burnout and wellness continuum, resilience is a developed and refined characteristic that propels an individual toward personal and professional success.» We propose a clinical resilience triangle consisting of 3 components that define resilience: grit, competence, and hope.» Resilience is a dynamic trait that should be built during residency and constantly fortified in independent practice so that orthopaedic surgeons may acquire and hone the skills and mental fortitude required to take on the overwhelming challenges that we all inevitably face.
