No one wants to feel like a failure, especially when the pressure and expectation of others is weighing you down. You want to make yourself and others proud and prove that you can do anything you set your mind to, so what’s holding you back? It’s that little voice inside saying, “Are you crazy?

A study by Duckworth and Martin Seligman in 2004 demonstrated that self-discipline is a better indicator of success than IQ. And best of all, self-discipline is a learn-able skill, which means you can achieve success without having a unique talent or an exceptionally high IQ.

What does a mentally strong badass look like to you? To me, it’s a confident, courageous person who grabs life by the balls, they look fear in the eyes, and say come at me b----.
