13 Things Mentally Strong People Don't Do

The quality of mentally strong people is that they control their emotions, thoughts, reactions and behavior. They are masters of their decisions and know that sometimes the key is not what they do, but what they don't do. So let's see what these things are that mental Hulks don't do, so that you can become one of them yourself and thus lead an (even) more successful and (even) less stressful life.

1. They don't feel sorry for themselves

Life is not a walk in the park and unfortunately it didn't come with instructions. Mentally strong people therefore do not waste time feeling sorry for themselves, but rather grab it by the horns and realize that it is not always fair and easy.

2. They do not allow others to make decisions for them

You choose your mood, it is not chosen for you by others.

They do not place decisions and responsibilities in the hands of others. They know they are tailor your own emotions and that they decide for themselves what kind of will they will have. That's why you won't hear them say they're in a bad mood because of someone else, because they're taking that right for themselves.

3. They don't reject change

Habit is an iron shirt and although there are changes for most baw baw, the mentally strong do not run away from them. Opposite. They welcome them because they are aware that they are imminent. That is why they try to be rather flexible and direct their energy into 'acclimatization' rather than into 'fighting with gullets'.

4. They don't waste energy where they have no control over what is happening

If they have no influence on a certain thing and it seems so frustrating, rather than axing, they resort to where they have this influence. And at the same time, they accept the fact that sometimes the only thing that can be controlled is their attitude or reaction to a given situation.

5. They don't try to please everyone

If you are trying to please everyone at all costs, know that you are not on the right track, because this can lead you to the point where you don't know how to say no anymore.

Bill Cosby said, "I don't know the key to success, but the key to failure is trying to please everyone," and the mentally strong know that. They try their best to please, but they also know how to accept disapproval.

6. They are not afraid of calculated risk

They never take reckless risks, because first they help the finger and only then the whole hand. Before making an important decision, they sleep on the matter, add up the pluses and minuses, and only then turn on either the green or the red light.

7. They are not stuck in the past

If the onion didn't have it, it would be bula. What was was was. "Don't dwell on the past, don't dream about the future, focus your mind on the present moment," he already said Buddha and this is also adhered to by the mentally strong, who focus most of their energy on the here and now.

8. They don't always repeat the same mistakes

Mentally strong people take responsibility for their actions and do not take mistakes to heart excessively, preferring to take them as teachings, which prevent them from going on the ice again.

Make a note of your mistakes so you don't repeat them.

9. They are not jealous of the success of others

The success of others does not crush the mentally strong, because it rather comes from them they draw inspiration. Thus, they look forward to the achievements of others and see them as an opportunity for themselves. They are aware that it will not just fall from the sky and that it is necessary to knock on many doors before one opens wide.

10. They don't give up at the first failure

“I am not a failure. I've only found 10,000 ways that don't work," he once said Thomas A. Edison and even the mentally strong do not see failure as a defeat but as an opportunity for progress and personal growth.

Success finds a way, failure finds an excuse.

11. They are not afraid to be alone

To be alone and solitude they are two completely different concepts, and because the mentally strong know how to separate them, they are not afraid of silence, of not being alone with their thoughts. They enjoy their own company and that's why they don't always need someone else to be happy.

12. They don't feel that anyone owes them anything

The mentally strong don't live in the belief that anything in life belongs to them, that's why they do not wait for gifts from others, but with an active approach they prefer to gift themselves.

13. They are not unexpected and impatient

The mentally strong do not resort to impatience, even when it comes to such a difficult matter as improving health. They don't expect it instant results and in such situations they prefer to use their knowledge rather than unexpectedness, which also comes with the realization that certain things just need their time.
