Are you ready to be negative, but a hero, and stand up for your own people when it's hard for them? How do strong and spiritually strong people differ from their more cowardly fellows?
1. They don't waste time feeling sorry for themselves.
You will never see them complaining that the circumstances were not the best, or that someone was dishonest with them. They have learned to take responsibility for the decisions they make and the results they end up with, and they are well aware that life is often unfair.
They come out of difficult situations with a clear understanding of what they did wrong and grateful for the lessons they have learned. When something doesn't work out for them, they say, "Next time."
2. They don't let other people control them
They know that they always control their actions and emotions, and will not allow outsiders to interfere in this matter - this is their strength, their advantage.
3. They don't shy away from change
They are not afraid of change and accept the challenges of fate with dignity. They are not afraid of the unknown. Their main fear is to freeze in place and not move forward. They know that any change is always a chance to become better and improve the world around them.
4. They do not waste their energy on what they cannot change
They don't complain about traffic jams or losing their luggage. They don't complain about other people because they understand that other people are out of their control.
They recognize that there are situations where the only thing they can control is their own attitudes and reactions.
5. They don't strive to be good for everyone
Do you know people who try to please everyone? Or people who are willing to sacrifice their own interests in order to please others? None of these behaviors are correct.
A strong-minded person tries to be kind and just. He may say something that will delight others, but he is never afraid to sincerely express his point of view. Even if he knows that by expressing his opinion, he can offend someone, he will still do it.
6. They are not afraid of justified risk
Strong-minded people are willing to take reasonable risks. This is the exact opposite of rushing into the pool headlong without first analyzing the situation.
Strong-minded people think carefully about the risks and rewards before making a decision, they are able to look at the whole situation and even imagine the worst outcome.
7. They do not waste their past
Not everyone can let go of their past, admit that there were mistakes that cannot be corrected anymore. But strong-minded people are able to do this. They know that lamenting or cherishing their past is useless. Instead, they put all their energy into making their present and future as good as possible.
8. They don't make the same mistakes over and over again
We all know what madness is, right? This is when a person takes the same actions and makes the same decisions every time, hoping that the result obtained will be much better than the last time.
Strong-minded people fully accept responsibility for their actions in the past and are ready to learn from their mistakes so as not to repeat them in the future.
9. They do not envy others' success
Only a strong person is able to sincerely rejoice at someone else's success. Strong-minded people know how to do this, they do not envy other people's victories, but work hard on themselves to become the best.
10. They don't give up after failure
Every failure is a chance to get better. Many successful people are willing to admit that their first steps towards success were not easy and frustrating. Strong-minded people are ready for the fact that they will have to suffer many defeats, but at the same time they know that each failure will bring invaluable experience and lessons that will bring them closer to victory.
11. They are not afraid of being alone
Strong-minded people know how to enjoy loneliness and know how valuable it is. They use this time to think and plan. This does not mean that they avoid the company of other people or do not need it at all, but they are self-sufficient: their mood and happiness do not depend on other people.
12. They know the world doesn't owe them anything
Strong-minded people know that, despite their qualifications and achievements, the world does not owe them anything: neither a large salary, nor a social package, nor a comfortable life.
They realize that if they want to get anything, they need to plow day in and day out.
13. They don't expect immediate results
It doesn't matter if it is training, diet or starting a new business, strong-minded people are initially tuned in to the fact that they have a long way to go. They use their time and energy wisely and never forget to celebrate their results at each stage. They are tough and understand that worthwhile changes come over time.
