Summary

Everyone knows that regular exercise and weight training lead to physical strength. But how do we strengthen ourselves mentally for the truly tough times? And what should we do when we face these challenges? Or as psychotherapist Amy Morin asks, what should we avoid when we encounter adversity? Through her years counseling others and her own experiences navigating personal loss, Morin realized it is often the habits we cannot break that are holding us back from true success and happiness. Indulging in self-pity or agonizing over things beyond our control, obsessing over past events, resenting the achievements of others, or expecting immediate positive results all hold us back.

Now, for the first time, Morin expands upon the 13 Things from her viral post and shares her tried-and-true practices for increasing mental strength. Increasing your mental strength can change your entire attitude. It takes practice and hard work, but with Morin's specific tips, exercises, and troubleshooting advice, it is possible to not only fortify your mental muscle but also drastically improve the quality of your life.

Pretty mundane synopsis or common sense musings

I struggled through the book but found it tough going because it was so mundane. The narration was OK but the boring content made it a slog. I think the author meant well, but, with the plethora of stuff available on podcasts and in the public domain one expects a book on the topic to be a deeper dive, not the sort of stuff you find on the average self improvement podcast. What was lacking for me was any sense of colour or personality, a few more stories or relatable anecdotes might have served to enliven it a bit.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
