It may seem that these two skills have a remote relationship to mental stability, but this is not so. Without motivation, there will not even be a desire to move forward and begin to change anything in your life. And without discipline, all achievements in a few days will be crossed out by laziness. But you need to climb this mountain for several weeks and even months.

<strong>Clear objectives</strong>

You need clear goals that help move forward, and do not make you stumble on the spot. They should inspire to act and make difficult decisions, and not to tire and cause stress. Be careful with setting goals so as not to take on too much. As too little.

<strong>Obligation to Obligations</strong>

A high level of mental sustainability also requires that you learn to take responsibility for achieving your goals. This means that you need to develop consistency in yourself, and also learn how to avoid temptations.

<strong>Ability to endure discomfort</strong>

A rare employer will hire a person who, at the first discomfort, starts whining and complaining about his hard life. He will offer a job to someone who can cope with problems.

If you do not know how to tolerate discomfort, then you are more likely to make bad decisions and give vent to negative emotions. Otherwise, you can separate yourself emotionally from the inconvenience and give the maximum result, no matter what.

Discomfort also appears when we are faced with failures and errors. Someone will long worry about this, losing valuable time. And someone will immediately reorganize, find out what caused the problem and begin to look for better solutions.

Do not let external circumstances adversely affect your decisions and thinking.

<strong>Creating realistic expectations</strong>

A typical example: a person decides that he wants to go to the gym every day. He is determined and therefore buys a subscription for a whole year. Two weeks of tremendous motivation are replaced by apathy. This is absolutely normal process, through which all pass. But if this person did not know about the regression, he can mentally not withstand this and give up training. In addition, he has not thought everything over and now can not find 2-3 hours every day for doing sports.
