The Five Tools Of Mental Strength, A.K.A. Balls   "Mental strength is something I've been forced to develop throughout my lifting career and my life, and in my opinion the best approach is to identify what composes it, namely the following five things:

•  Confidence and belief in oneself
•  The ability to overcome adversity
•  The ability to tolerate or endure pain
•  The desire and determination to keep going no matter the cost (read sacrifice)
•  The ability to overcome fear."——Matt "Kroc" Kroczaleski, for TNation.com
