Set reasonable goals and follow through with them:

When you set goals for yourself, don’t make them humongous, but set smaller more achievable goals. Instead of saying that I will walk 10 KM today, and then fail and disappoint yourself, make an achievable goal, that I will walk 1 KM today. Achieve the goal, and celebrate it. Tomorrow slowly increase the distance, and over a period of time meet your goal of walking 10 KMs

Make yourself strong against negativity:

Remove negative people from your life, create a distance between yourself and them. Interact with them less and less. Setup your mental mindset to ignore negative people, negative thoughts, and negative instances in life.

Use positive self-talk to build your mental and emotional strength:

Always talk to yourself positively, never negative talk to yourself. Never tell you self that you are incapable of doing something. Always coach yourself positively and give yourself positive and uplifting motivation and messages.

Learn to stay calm under pressure:

If you are living the ECG of your life will be up and down, when it is down and there is pressure in your life. Learn to stay calm, the negative time will pass, and don’t even for a split second believe that if you get excited and don’t remain calm it will not happen. You need to build your ability to stay calm when you are under pressure.

Let go of the little things:

Don’t sweat the little stuff, learn to let go of the small stuff. People carry grudges for far too long. This is certainly not helping you, learn to let go of your anger and move forward.

Change your perspective:

Tough as this sounds, it is very doable, you need to change your perspective in life. In life there is nothing “right” or “wrong” (except in very rare cases). You need to change your perspective and change your mindset from “blame” to “ownership”. Don’t blame others for your problems, but take ownership of how you will be responsible for your own actions.

Have a positive outlook:

Having a positive outlook and attitude is half the battle won. A positive attitude causes a chain reaction of positive thoughts, events, and outcomes. It is a catalyst and it sparks extraordinary results. Live your life day by day and each day, start your day with a positive attitude, trying to get better and more mentally strong.

Unfortunately, people have a very wrong opinion that Mental Strength is something you either have or you haven’t. I am complete disagreement with this statement, in my extensive experience as a Psychologist, I have learned that Mental Strength is just another skill that can be learned by anyone.
