13 Things Mentally Strong People Don't Do

A great little article by Amy Morin, 13 Things Mentally Strong People Don't Do. Here are the 13 things (sans summaries):

1. They don't waste time feeling sorry for themselves.
2. They don't give away their power.
3. They don't shy away from change.
4. They don't waste energy on things they can't control.
5. They don't worry about pleasing everyone.
6. They don't fear taking calculated risks.
7. They don't dwell on the past.
8. They don't make the same mistakes over and over.
9. They don't resent other people's success.
10. They don't give up after the first failure.
11. They don't fear time alone.
12. They don't feel the world owes them anything.
13. They don't expect immediate results.

A year ago, I would have said I failed at at least 9 of these; today perhaps only 3! How many do you need to work on?
