"L'antifragilité est au-delà de la résilience ou de la robustesse. Le résilient résiste aux chocs et reste le même. L'antifragile s'améliore."

Nassim Nicholas Taleb

Simplified Meaning:

Imagine two kinds of people facing tough situations. Some people bounce back to their original state after a tough time; this is like a rubber ball that, when pressed, springs back to its original shape. These people are resilient. However, there are others who don't just recover but actually grow stronger after facing challenges. They might learn new skills, become wiser, or improve in some way. Think of an athlete who, after facing a setback like an injury, comes back even stronger because they use the experience to train better and harder. This is what it means to be antifragile. So, in life, it's not just about surviving difficult times but using those experiences to improve and become stronger than before.
