Cédric and York lean into this theme and apply it to our everyday lives by keeping in mind that “life happens”, and sometimes you will not be able to stick to a plan. York identifies three key factors that are key to developing our mental toughness:
- Internal motivation: the most important component. Remind yourself why you started the process in the first place. This motivation should be the origin and drive to continue your journey.
- External rewards: this may manifest itself in many ways, but should regardless not be the main motivating factor.
- Social support: this type of support may aid your journey in the form of recognition and encouragement.
