What is Mental Toughness to You?

What is Mental Toughness 

There are way too many definitions of what is psychological strength. And I’m talking published research definitions. It seemed to be such a sexy term, that scholars just ran with creating their own meaning.

But, I am a wash and wear kind of guy, I keep it very simple.

But, it does take a genius to keep it simple. 

I simply continue to use Jim Loehr’s definition of what is mental toughness

(Performing well under pressure and how we cope with adversity, Loehr, 1986).

In my Mental Toughness podcast with Dr. Rob Bell I ask every expert on my show- what is mental toughness to you? 

I value how these tough people define strength and more importantly, how they exhibit it in life. SO FAR, I’ve interviewed two different stroke victims, 19 professional athletes, 5 professional strength coaches, two amazing women that ran 383 miles, ultra-endurance athletes,  8 personal development coaches, and 8 successful entrepreneurs.
