If you wonder why some people weather setbacks and challenges better than others, psychotherapist Amy Morin has an answer: They practice strategies that help keep them mentally strong. Her explanations of 13 behaviors to avoid and good habits to develop in their place – and the stories she tells with each entry – will spur you to think about how you handle whatever comes your way. getAbstract recommends Morin’s straightforward, relevant counsel to those seeking greater psychological strength in their personal and professional lives.

Take-Aways

  • Practicing 13 “mental strength” habits can help you handle setbacks, misfortunes and losses. The habits are:
  • Refrain from self-pity and reach for gratitude. Control your life instead of letting others do it for you; “retain your power.”
  • Welcome change, but never dwell on matters that you can’t affect.
