Mental strength isn't something you're born with, but rather something you have to work at. It's more challenging to build one's mental strength than it is physical strength or athletic agility. We all go through tough times and will probably continue to do so in the future. And while it's hard to change some things, we can always work on ourselves and be better prepared for what might come our way. Mental toughness is something that everyone should work towards-we're never too old to start! The good news is that there are many ways you can start building your mental strength today!

How do you feel now? The first step to building mental strength isn't necessarily about doing something. Rather, it's about thinking about the worst day of your life. Now, this doesn't have to be an actual "bad" day-it could be a bad dream or a terrible event from your past that still has an emotional impact on you. Rather than thinking about the actual day, take some time to think about how you feel in your body when you remember that day. Are your muscles tense? Do certain thoughts come up again and again? Are there are any images or sounds that are difficult for you to deal with? When you begin to open up to how this event makes you feel, you can begin to let it go. You may not be able to change the day itself, but you'll have a much easier time dealing with your memories of that day and it will give you more mental strength in the present moment. #2 - Write a gratitude journal every night Writing a gratitude journal is an awesome way of building mental strength. Everyone has something to be grateful for, but very often our thoughts get in the way and prevent us from seeing it. If you want to feel more gratitude on a regular basis, start by writing down 3 things every night before bed. It doesn't matter if they're big or small-just make sure that you're focusing on the positive. As with any new habit, it can feel a little weird at first. But as you start to cultivate more gratitude, your life will undoubtedly improve. To know more, watch video:
