However, because we are complex and complicated beings-beings who constantly bargain with ourselves even though we know what is good for us-instead of doing what will give us the most satisfaction in the end, we constantly settle for things that give us temporary happiness in the present moment (the very definition of procrastination). This is why many of us never achieve our goals and aims. Mental toughness in this book refers to the power and potential you have inside you to overcome, persist, dominate and conquer over challenges in life regardless of the obstacles in your path. It is about becoming unstoppable. It is about constantly raising the standards of what you expect of yourself in life. Most importantly, it is about cultivating a competitive winning mentality. It is about a peak performance mindset that applies to your life. Inside this book, you will find tips and tricks on how to improve your self-esteem, how to view challenging situations as opportunities, and how to use your newfound confidence to improve every area of your life. This book might have caught your eye because you have been feeling down, or maybe because you want to improve your mental strength. If you have been experiencing self-doubt and that feeling of being "stuck" in your situation, then this book is for you.
