Psychological, intellectual, and emotional strength is, in many ways, the ability to perceive reality for what it really is, and then manage your emotions about those observations in a healthy, productive manner.
Mental strength is revealed by both what we do and, at other times, by what we don’t do.
Here are 14 signs of a mentally strong individual…
Self and self-sufficiency
You have a clear and strong sense of self. You are not codependent or manipulative or possessive or controlling. You know how to deal with your problems.
You don’t fear being alone, yet you are not afraid of people either. You don’t want others to save you, nor do you try to rescue or fundamentally change others.
You don’t rely on other people to manage your emotions, nor do you act your emotions out on them.
Healthy self-esteem
Sometimes high, healthy self-esteem is confused with narcissism (symbols of status: fake self-confidence, disrespectful behaviour, looks, money, power, fame, ability to manipulate others)and vice versa.
A mentally strong person is neither falsely self-confident nor timid.
You are aware of and accept your strengths and weaknesses. You have learned to accurately self-evaluate and?self-validate, so that you are neither dependent on praise from others nor devastated by rejection.
Proactivity instead of passivity or reactivity
You recognize that you are responsible for your own life. If there is a problem, you can weigh your options and make a decision.
In comparison, a passive person usually feels overwhelmed or disconnected, to the degree where he or she feels paralyzed and incapacitated to take any action. Similarly, a reactive person simply automatically reacts to things instead of consciously making decisions.
How do they do it? If you want to be a woman of emotional toughness, practice these daily habits.
They have a “why.”
They practice mindfulness (even if they haven’t exactly mastered it yet).
They face challenges head-on and thrive on them.
They set boundaries and hold people to them.
They move their bodies and break a sweat.
They don’t overanalyze every little thing.
They value and prioritize emotional connections with their loved ones.
They practice self-love and self-compassion.
They avoid drama and negativity wherever possible.
