About this listen
Two people get knocked down. One rises to the challenge while the other one stays down for good. How will you live your life?
Can you plan your life to avoid the inevitable obstacles and hardships? No, because if you get past the first obstacle, the second or the third will take you down. Life is tough, which means you should get a helmet. Welcome to your life helmet.
Train yourself to prepare for the worst while expecting the best. Mental Toughness & Iron Will is a guidebook into becoming someone who stops at nothing to achieve their goals.
What is mental toughness? It is a mindset and state of being - it comes from deep habits, skills, and thought patterns. You’ll learn all of those and also how to put them into immediate action. This book is the rocket boost to get you to invincibility.
Learn to build bulletproof mental armor. Patrick King is an internationally best-selling author and social skills coach. His writing draws of a variety of sources, from scientific research, academic experience, coaching, to real-life experience. He’s well versed in mental toughness and how it is one of the keys to getting ahead in life.
Discover the mental toughness techniques used by the top one percent of performers. Learn the:
- The importance and biological imperative of mental toughness
- How to face failure and fear head-on
- Emotional thinking and how to bypass it
- How to overcome your emotions and rely on your iron will
- How we distort our realities and self-sabotage - and how to stop it
- How to build the skill and habit of mental toughness and resilience
- Characteristics of the mentally weak and the lacking

Story
Expressing what you want isn’t selfish, it’s prioritizing yourself. The need to please is powerful, but it causes anxiety, stress, and resentment. Time to change your patterns. Stand Up for Yourself is direct and no-nonsense. That’s because the way you prioritize others and let them stomp all over your boundaries isn’t working, so you need a change. This book teaches you how to reverse these mini-decisions, and internalize the belief that you are worth it, you are valuable, and you deserve it. Because you are, and you do.

Solid Actionable Tips/Concepts
This is my 1st book I've listened to on this platform and I'd say it's worth a listen. Has many great actionable tips and concepts you can apply as soon as you understand them. As well the book is laid out in a very easy way to take notes and has summarizations at the end of each chapter.

I believe the words we us affect us.
I don't believe we should use the word Failure. No one fails when they have tried. I personally believe we applaud the effort and adjust our approach if we didn't get the happy results we intended.
