What's the link between external and internal resources?

Internal resources are a person's mental potential, including character, abilities, knowledge, skills, experience, emotions, feelings, and worldview. The more internal resources a person has, the more confident she/he feels without external support. She/he perceives reality adequately, achieves personal goals, withstands stresses and at the same time maintains integrity. External resources are material values and social ties. That is, things that support and help us from the outside, for example: family, friends, work, money, hobbies, studies, etc. When external resources are lost, internal resources are gradually depleted, and if a person has not formed internal resources, he won't be able to use external ones. This is the cycle of resources.
