Summary

Are you looking to build your resilience to the challenges you face? Do you like short, powerful stories?

Stories can inspire us, they convey hope and help us find meaning in the things that challenge us. Stories are a great way to connect with others and teach us about ourselves. They can also help us tap into reserves of resilience and mental toughness we didn't know we possess.

This collection of 20 stories will help you do just that.

Purchase Mental Toughness Metaphors, and let the 20 stories and reflective questions uncover resilience you didn't know you had.

Mental fitness expert Anthony Taylor brings the power of short stories and reflective questions together to help you build your resilience to life's challenge. A student and practitioner of Stoic philosophy, Anthony believes we all have within us the tools to be stronger than we think we are and to achieve more than we think ourselves capable of.

You'll discover how to handle pressure, control your impulses, and endure the emotional and psychological distress that are often a part of everyday life.

Anthony runs ThreeFifty9, a consultancy specialising in supporting middle managers to be mentally fit leaders. He is the host of the Mental Fitness Podcast and author of Tips From The Top: The Secrets of How to Successfully Navigate Middle Management.

Short, engaging and thought-provoking

A great collection of refreshingly short and to the point stories with reflective take-away points and questions to think about resilience. My kids enjoyed many of these and it's helped make a few long car journeys less challenging. Well worth a listen.
