Summary

How do you handle tough situations in life? Building mental strength is a critical aspect of achieving success and living a fulfilling life. It involves developing a mindset that allows you to overcome obstacles and setbacks, and maintain a positive outlook even in the face of adversity. It requires a strong sense of self-awareness, which involves understanding your strengths and weaknesses and being willing to take risks and step outside of your comfort zone. This can involve setting realistic goals, practicing self-reflection, and seeking feedback from others. Amy Morin, editor-in-chief of Verywell Mind, the biggest mental health website in the world, joins us on the Greatness Machine to talk about her new book, 13 Things Mentally Strong People Don’t Do. In this episode, Darius and Amy talk about the importance of building mental strength to help manage our thoughts and emotions. Amy explains the difference between knowing and doing, and why people often fear solitude and silence. Topics include: What changed Amy’s mind about becoming a doctor What motivated Amy to learn about building mental strength and toughness The challenges of knowing versus doing The benefits of having a pros-and-cons list Amy recalls writing 13 Things Mentally Strong People Don’t Do How to stop dwelling in the past and move on for good The three parts of mental strength Ways to stop expecting immediate results Why people fear the quiet and being alone Amy talks about The Verywell Mind Podcast And other topics… Resources mentioned: The War of Art by: https://stevenpressfield.com/books/the-war-of-art/ Connect with Amy: Website: https://amymorinlcsw.com/ Website: https://www.verywellmind.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/amymorinlcsw/ Book: https://www.amazon.com/Things-Mentally-Strong-People-Workbook/dp/0063252236 Podcast: https://www.verywellmind.com/the-verywell-mind-podcast-5113058 Connect with Darius: Website: ⁠https://therealdarius.com/⁠ Linkedin: ⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/dariusmirshahzadeh/⁠ Instagram: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/imthedarius/⁠ YouTube: ⁠https://www.youtube.com/@Thegreatnessmachine⁠ Book: The Core Value Equation ⁠https://www.amazon.com/Core-Value-Equation-Framework-Limitless/dp/1544506708 This episode is sponsored by Porkbun.
