Thanks for your comment, maybe we could be a little clearer.  According to Merrium Webster,
adaptive (or having a capacity for adaption) is defined as “modification of an organism or its parts that makes it more fit for existence under the conditions of its environment”.  Please note that there are other definitions of “adaption” but this is the one that would apply to what we’re referring to. 

Resilient is defined as “capable of withstanding shock without permanent deformation or rupture” or “tending to recover from or adjust easily to misfortune or change”. 

Meg never said that adaptive implied negativity, simply that resilient might be a better word to describe yourself when creating a brand.  Resilient, by definition, does not necessarily refer to something negative.  It’s very interesting how subtle word choices can affect the way you are perceived online. 

I hope that clears things up for you!

Adaptable does not imply negativity, but merely the ability to change. Resilient implies able to take a hit, or ability to absorb negative situations. Why would anyone associate themselves with negatives.

Clearly, you have no grasp of the English language.
