I think "resilience" is more poetic than "resistance". Kind of like "modulation" instead of "moderation". Basically yes, but a lot of it is mental attitude and being willing and able to learn lessons from that activity.

See previous point about mental attitude. I clearly said I do a "half-assed" job, but do it consistently so that I can judge the effect.
Do you need a yearly physical? Can you afford one? Is the risk vs benefit different at different points in the ILI (influenza like illness) cycle? Is it different depending on the general quality of medical care in your community? Is it different if the linen service comes through the front door of the clinic, or if the staff bothers to wipe the door handles?
I think you need to be observant to develop answers to those questions and have any confidence in your reasoned judgement concerning related ones.
Finally, I consider myself fortunate to have gotten out of the urban core and embraced a little of the "hard" part of life.
