antifragile

Antifragile is a concept used to describe systems, things, or people that become stronger when they experience stress or difficulty. An example of an antifragile system could be a muscle. When you exercise your muscle, it gets stronger and bigger. In other words, the stress of exercise makes it antifragile. Similarly, some people become more motivated and creative when under pressure. This is another example of antifragility.
