Sometimes, people assume that you only need mental strength when struggling with a mental health issue. But that’s not true.

Mental strength is the key to reaching your greatest potential. For one person, that may mean building enough mental muscle to be able to hold a job. For someone like Tom Brady, building more mental strength is key to helping him win Superbowl championships.

In fact, trying to build mental strength when you’re already struggling is much more challenging than trying to build mental muscle when life is going well.

Think of it as physical strength and physical health. Trying to workout in the gym after you’ve developed a physical health problem will likely be more difficult than building muscle when you’re healthy.

No matter what your goals are, a healthy mindset is the key to achieving them. After all, your body won’t do what your mind doesn’t tell it.
