what defines mental resiliency?

1. No Time-Travel to Past:

Mentally resilient people accept that they cannot change or erase the past. They learn to live above them. Mentally strong people will let go of the past but not the lesson it taught.

2. No Self-Pity:

Mentally powerful people will avoid playing the victim or bring self-pity. They take responsibility. Self-pity is self-sabotage because it will never let you out of the false comfort zone. Real-life is out there, and somehow we have to face it. Mentally resilient people know all this for a fact.

3. No Resentment:

Others will never intimidate mentally strong people. And, they will never have resentment over other people’s success, money, power, and life. They don’t feel resentment because they value themselves and their life for what it is. Those who are mentally strong will know that focusing on their own life gives fruitful results.

Holding on to resentment, grudges, jealousy are fundamental behaviors that mentally resilient people avoid in life.

4. They don’t do Drama:

Mentally resilient individuals will cut the drama in their life and at work. They diffuse conflicts. They will not bring unnecessary troubles. They never show inappropriate and annoying attitudes or behaviors towards other people. Mentally strong people will avoid drama and like to keep things real. Same time, they don’t hurt people in the name of ‘being real.’ Point is, mentally strong doesn’t refer to being mean and stone-cold towards people.

5. No Negativities

All mentally resilient individuals have one thing in common. They surround themselves with positive words, positive attitudes, and positive people. They distance themselves from negativities of any form, both professionally and personally.

Takeaway:

If you have any of the attitudes above in your life, it means you are already a mentally resilient person. Keep growing!
