Description Master your mental toughness with innovative new strategies that work for everyone from housewives to warriors, teachers to CEOs. Everyone knows that regular exercise and weight training contribute to increased physical strength. But how do we mentally prepare for extremely difficult times? And what should we do when we face these difficulties? Alternatively, what should we avoid when faced with adversity? Morin recognized that it is often the patterns we cannot break that are holding us back from actual success and happiness through her years of counseling people and her own experiences managing personal loss. Indulging in self-pity, worrying about things beyond our control, obsessing over prior happenings, resenting others' accomplishments, or expecting immediate positive results all hold us back. This list of things mentally strong individuals don't do was so well received by readers that it was picked up by Forbes.com and had ten million views. This book expands on the thirteen elements, offering tried-and-true tactics for building mental strength. Written with piercing honesty, weaving together anecdotes from work as a college psychology instructor and psychotherapist, as well as personal experiences of how increased my mental fortitude was when tragedy threatened to engulf me. Increasing your mental fortitude can alter your entire outlook. It takes time and effort, but with Morin's specific instructions, exercises, and troubleshooting assistance, you may not only strengthen your mental muscles but also dramatically improve the quality of your life.
