Antifragility

Okay kiddo, have you ever heard of antifragility? It's a big word, but it's actually a pretty simple concept. Imagine you have two toys: a bouncy ball and a glass figurine. If you drop the ball, what happens? It bounces back up, right? But if you drop the figurine, what happens? It breaks into pieces! That's because the ball is tough and resilient, while the figurine is fragile.

Now, antifragility is kind of like being a bouncy ball. It means that instead of being fragile like the glass figurine, you actually get stronger when you face challenges. Imagine you're building a sandcastle and someone comes and kicks it down. If you get mad and give up, you're fragile. But if you decide to build an even better sandcastle, you're antifragile!

This idea can apply to lots of things, like your body. When you do exercise, you're actually causing small damages to your muscles. But when your body repairs those damages, it becomes stronger and healthier! So instead of being fragile and getting sick all the time, you can become antifragile by exercising and becoming healthier.

So, antifragility means being tough and resilient, so that you can get stronger even when things go wrong. It's like being a bouncy ball instead of a glass figurine!
