Have you ever wondered why some people accomplish their goals while others fail? Why some people thrive while others only survive?

Research is starting to reveal that your mental toughness — or “grit” as they call it — plays a more important role than anything else for achieving your goals in health, business, and life.

In order to be successful in life, you need to develop physical and mental strength. Arnold Schwarzenegger once said, “The last three or four reps is what makes the muscle grow. This area of pain divides the champion from someone else who is not a champion. That’s what most people lack, having the guts to go on and just say they’ll go through the pain no matter what happens.”

You need to treat your mind as if it were a muscle; you need to develop a strong mindset in order to step out of your comfort zone and persevere beyond life’s challenges. Always remember that your mind is stronger than your body. Your mindset is your ultimate source of energy.

Are you tough enough? Do you throw in the towel and give up when things get uncomfortable? Are you coming up short in life because you aren’t mentally and physically strong enough?

If the answer is yes, take a moment to envision what your life would be like if you pushed passed those moments of wanting to give up?

Studies suggest that being able to withstand the discomfort and negative emotions — like fear, anxiety, anger, frustration or guilt — that come from facing into difficult challenges is what actually allows us to become stronger, wiser, more mentally agile, and eventually happier.

Your ability to feel through pain and discomfort is where the real growth lies. Are you tough enough to persevere through life's challenges? The choice is yours.
