About the Book
Resilient by Design is a practical book about mental resilience for people who work in complex, demanding knowledge jobs, especially in IT.
Most books about stress and burnout focus on prevention: avoid overload, reduce pressure, and say no more often. While that matters, it misses a crucial reality of modern work. You cannot avoid every hit. Systems fail. Deadlines collide. People break. Things go wrong.
Resilience is not about never getting knocked down. It is about how quickly and reliably you get back up.
This book approaches resilience the same way engineers approach system reliability: by assuming failure will happen and designing accordingly. You will learn how stress builds up, how burnout develops over time, and, most importantly, how to recover faster, stabilize yourself under pressure, and remain operational when things get messy.
There is no esoteric language, no motivational hype, and no generic life advice. Instead, you will find grounded models, clear metaphors, and practical reflections you can apply immediately in your daily work.
Resilient by Design is written for developers, engineers, and knowledge workers who want to stay functional, healthy, and present, not by avoiding reality, but by being prepared for it.
