13 Things Mentally Strong People Don't Do - Amy Morin

I recently read this book on my Kindle. Amy Morin in this book brings a scientific process to the topic of mental strength and asserts that this can be improved with practice and discipline just like physical health.

In a nutshell, the 13 takeaways are:

1. Don’t Waste Time Feeling Sorry for Yourself

2. Don’t Give Away Your Power

3. Don’t Shy Away from Change

4. Don’t Waste Energy on Things You Can’t Control

5. Don’t Worry About Pleasing Everyone

6. Don’t Fear Taking Calculated Risks

7. Don’t Dwell on the Past

8. Don’t Make the Same Mistakes Over and Over

9. Don’t Resent Other People’s Success

10. Don’t Give Up After the First Failure

11. Don’t Fear Alone Time

12. Don’t Feel the World Owes You Anything

13. Don’t Expect Immediate Results
