In this video, I discuss the concept of mental toughness and how it relates to achieving our goals in life. I share personal stories from my experiences in sports, the military, and training for an Ironman race. Mental toughness is the ability to push through non-ideal circumstances and keep going towards our desired outcomes. I explain the components of mental toughness, including short-term acute mental toughness, a growth mindset, and focus. I also provide tips on how to build mental toughness and emphasize the importance of taking control of our physical health and surrounding ourselves with positive influences.
