10 mistakes that keep you mentally weak all your life (I’m serious)

It took me decades to realise how many mistakes I’d been making that were making me miserable.

No one had taught me this stuff.

I picked up this knowledge mainly through a lot of unnecessary anxiety.

After fifteen years of studying mental health and coaching hundreds of people, I’ve seen these same patterns hurt lives over and over again.

The coming years will be brutal for most. Mental strength is your greatest asset now.

Here are the mistakes that guarantee you’ll stay mentally weak:

1. Believing you’re broken and need fixing.

This is the mother of all mental health mistakes. You’re not a freaking toaster.

Yes, it’s counterintuitive, but you reinforce mental weakness by thinking there’s something inherently wrong with you, even if you set out to ‘fix’ yourself.

When you operate from this belief, you reinforce the very problem you’re trying to solve. You become obsessed with your flaws, your past ‘trauma,’ and your supposed deficiencies.

Look around. So many people are, and they‘re as happy as pandas with a crack problem.
