How to become strong mentally?

To become strong mentally there some thing you have to let go and there are some you have to adapt, in this article I pinpoint some points needed to do to become strong mentally. 

 Here’s some things you need to do: 

Eat the elephant. 

How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time. Take insurmountable goals and break them down into smaller objectives. 

Use visualization. 

Run vivid scenarios of yourself succeeding over and over inside your head. This maximizes the chance of success when the time comes. 

 Practice emotional control. 

Use breathing techniques such as the “4 by 4 for 4” (4 seconds in, 4 seconds out for 4 minutes) to keep yout stress levels under control. Use self talk. Reframe external events in a positive light. Understand that it is not the EVENT but the INTERPRETATION that matters. 

Celebrate small victories. 

See the beauty of small victories in tough times. This keeps morale high so you can keep fighting the good fight. 

Value your tribe. 

Care for your team. Lose the tribe and you lose everything. The techniques are important, but actually executing them is even more so.
