13 Things Mentally Strong People Don't Do by Ami Morin

Can you think of giving random calls to people? Will you be comfortable doing that? Or think of a task which is challenging for you and it is to be done by you in a group, will you be able to do that? How easy would it be to do that work? Just brood over it?

To give calls to group members was the contest of Words to Wisdom Book and Lifestyle Club, where we picked around 10 members and they called 5 members in the group. It was something challenging and out of the box contest which was enjoyed by each and every member of the group. And Words to Wisdom has done a great job not only in connecting people but also

making this unique effort of getting out of comfort zone.

Our fellow member A K Singh has made it look so easy as if it was just a finger snap for him. He called atleast 10 members in the group and made them feel comfortable to enjoy the process. The process of making call, process of interaction, process of knowing each other and process of making good friends. He didn't waste time feeling sorry for himself if someone has not picked his call nor given his power by thinking what others will think of his random call process. He was flexible enough to do this task. And these are some of the powerful traits of Mentally Strong people mentioned in the book of the month of the group.✌️✌️

Words to Wisdom Book and Lifestyle Club 📚 has given this opportunity to read and learn from the book "13 Things Mentally Strong People Don't Do" by Ami Morin which teaches us to develop and control emotions, thoughts and feelings.

R Madhavan, a representative of the group stresses on one of the trait of Mentally Strong People that they don't do is they are not people pleasers. They only focus on what the work is and what they want from the team and not on how they will please someone to make the work happen.

It is so much related to our everyday existence. He even talked about the manipulators that we encounter in our lives. He said they play with our emotions without knowing how much difficult it will be to deal with the situation afterwards.

Shreya Gupta, the host, has mentioned all the characteristics of the mentally strong people. She gave weightage to the point that Mentally strong people "don't resent other people's success". She said people can be jealous that is also acceptable but if someone has feeling of resentment then you have to be very careful because these people not only harm themselves but can harm you anytime. They want the quality of yours in them and at the same time they don't want these qualities to be embedded in you anymore.

Shreya covered all the points by giving suitable examples, case studies and by sharing life experiences. 🤗

For example: You are suffering from stomach infection and it has caused lots of pain and trauma to your body and mind. As, it has affected you for a month. You got weak and pale, you are on medicines and recovered fully after 3 months. Doctor advised you on what to eat and what to avoid. Now, suppose you can't eat what you like. Then, what will you do? You will eat it after your recovery or after some more time? Will you risk yourself of the pain that you have gone through before? What do you think? 🤔
