Why on earth did you make that original assumption? In the fall of 2013, our family received notice from Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield of Colorado that we could no longer keep our private hospital insurance plan because of changes from health care reform. Obamacare wouldn’t we need to keep it. We liked our high deductible preferred provider organization plan that allowed us to choose from a variety of doctors. Reluctantly, and after great bureaucratic difficulty, my hubby and I enrolled in an individual market plan with Rocky Mountain Health, that offered a much narrower provider network than the Anthem PPO plan we had before the feds snuffed it out. I wrote this follow up post on Forbes -5 Powerful Exercises to Increase Your Mental Strength -for just that reason.
We all have to fight the gravity of falling into these 13 traps.
Therefore this should be required reading for anyone who wants to be successful in any venture -professional and personal.
Amy, an excellent post.
Thanks for sharing! Two therapy years, travelling, and all that stuff, helped revive me. I was in an intense relationship that eventually ended and left me feeling so weak and powerless.

I check myself now and feel liberated in the process, when I catch myself doing most of the above. Nonetheless, after reading your article I applied for significant promotion at my work -which I originally feared trying out for as I was scared that I might fail. It’s a well recently reading your piece makes me feel empowered. Notice, instead, they recognize that success comes with hard work, and they are willing to work hard for their own chance at success. Mentally strong people can appreciate and celebrate other people’s success in lifetime.
They don’t grow jealous or feel cheated when others surpass them.
Mentally strong people don’t waste time dwelling on the past and wishing things should be different.
Instead, they live for the present and plan for the future. Anyways, they acknowledge their past and can say what they’ve learned from it. They don’t constantly relive bad experiences or fantasize about the glory days. Needless to say, your book really helped me a lot I received p news dealing with my diatebese. I’m turning65 in March and you woke me to how much energy I was ultimately. I am the happiest person I am in years. Now look. Chou so I can put in words. You should take this seriously. Thanks for your book. They’re not afraid to say no or speak up when necessary.
Can handle other people being upset if they didn’t make them happy, they strive to be kind and fair. Mentally strong people recognize that they don’t need to please everyone very often. Plenty of times I come up short making an attempt to just like Alcoholics Anonymous actually addressing every of these behaviors. What a wonderful list. Besides, nice to find them listed in this particular positive form.
Depression and anxiety certainly make it difficult to avoid a certain amount these things as they influence a person’s thoughts and feelings.
It requires professional I have seen a bunch of people become successful at doing it, it should take extra work and dedication to make change when you’re struggling with a mental illness. Heard Rush Limbaugh read these on his radio show yesterday. Might result in less angst if taught in schools these days, or even when I was in school. Great points to consider and implement in lifespan. Thanks for the comprehensive list. Now look. Kind of looks really like self actualization. I have great genes, am young for my age, and go from the teachings of brilliant people who have crossed over now.
Most were Liberals!, thankfully!

Really its great artical earlier I was bit confused about the to become a sucessful person whichis more important phycical strength or mental strenght now I realised that mentally strength people only can change rest of the thing easily in thieir mind and their life alos. Instead, they welcome positive change and are willing to be flexible.
They understand that change is inevitable and believe in their abilities to adapt. Mentally strong people don’t try to avoid change. Great list! They model this stuff because Gotta get the parents. God bless Ms Morin. Can we get this stuff to the folks in jails/prisons? Now pay attention please. It’s good you’re reaching the youth also. This is the case. Fell onto your list listening to the Rush Limbaugh show. Mentally strong people possess both of these traits and therefore are usually very well adjusted. Excellent post Amy. Usually, lack of accountability and personal ownership are at the center of the entitlement mentality. Because Amy says it all so concisely, I have bookmarked this page. We all go through those rough ups and downs occasionally! It should be a great boost when good job, Amy! They accept responsibility for their behavior and learn from their past mistakes. Furthermore, instead, they lifespan and understand that life was not always easy or fair. Of course, mentally strong people don’t sit around feeling sorry about their circumstances or how others have treated them. They enjoy their own company and aren’t dependent on others for companionship and entertainment every now and then but instead can be happy alone.
