"Mentally Strong" Challenge #2

This month I will focus on the following:

Mentally strong people don't give away their power.

Mentally strong people avoid giving others the power to make them feel inferior or bad.  They understand they are in control of their actions and emotions.  They know their strength is in their ability to manage the way they respond.

(This is #2 on a list of 13 things mentally strong people avoid which was compiled by Amy Morin, a psychotherapist and licensed clinical social worker).

Last month, I focused on Challenge #1, that is, "Mentally strong people don't waste time feeling sorry for themselves."

Even at 65, I can improve.  Please join me if you're so inclined.  Goals are good motivators.
