13 Things Mentally Strong People Don't Do

Take Back Your Power, Embrace Change, Face Your Fears, and Train Your Brain for Happiness and Success

De: Amy Morin

Narrado por: Amy Morin

Expanding on her viral post that has become an international phenomenon, a psychotherapist offers simple yet effective solutions for increasing mental strength and finding happiness and success in life.

As a licensed clinical social worker, college psychology instructor, and psychotherapist, Amy Morin has seen countless people choose to succeed despite facing enormous challenges. That resilience inspired her to write 13 Things Mentally Strong People Don't Do, a web post that instantly went viral, and was picked up by the Forbes website.

Morin’s post focused on the concept of mental strength, how mentally strong people avoid negative behaviors—feeling sorry for themselves, resenting other people’s success, and dwelling on the past. Instead, they focus on the positive to help them overcome challenges and become their best.

In this inspirational, affirmative book, Morin expands upon her original message, providing practical strategies to help readers avoid the thirteen common habits that can hold them back from success. Combining compelling anecdotal stories with the latest psychological research, she offers strategies for avoiding destructive thoughts, emotions, and behaviors common to everyone.

Like physical strength, mental strength requires healthy habits, exercise, and hard work. Morin teaches you how to embrace a happier outlook and arms you to emotionally deal with life’s inevitable hardships, setbacks, and heartbreaks—sharing for the first time her own poignant story of tragedy, and how she summoned the mental strength to move on. As she makes clear, mental strength isn’t about acting tough; it’s about feeling empowered to overcome life's challenges.

useful

didn't care for the introduction the rest of the book was really good. definitely will be listening to it again.

Good information but slow, monotonous narration

The information is helpful and motivating.
The narration, however, was slow and very monotone.
I got through it by using 1.5 speed to keep from losing focus.

Must read!

Fantastic life changing book! I've read it multiple times and get something new out of it each time. It has helped me establish more peace, harmony, and happiness in my life. Very well written and organized!

Great for the "Lay" person

Loved this book! Simple ideas offering profound help. I especially appreciated the "what helps" & "what doesn't help" ideas.

This is a must read for all women (and men)

excellent all the way through. I learned a lot and I'm looking forward to putting it in practice

I took away some really great point

This book was really good. It gave me some really great tools on how to handle different situations. I plan to use a lot of the tools that were provided. I just don’t like some of the illustrations or examples that were used.

Great tips to achieve success and mental strength

This audio is packed with great insight and examples that it belongs in everyone’s tool kit for personal and professional development, this would be a great companion to the physical book and would highly recommend getting this audio and/or book. #tagsgiving #sweepstakes. #development #success

Just What the Therapist ordered.

Amy Morin delivered a lesson in a well thought out way. Her writing gave a formatted example that walked me through my life step by step of mindfulness. Her words offered me deeper awareness toward my journey of mental health. Today and from now on, I am aware.
