Improve your workplace performance with 50 practical, science-backed tools that build emotional resilience and neutralize negative thoughts—from the internationally bestselling author of the 13 Things Mentally Strong People Don’t Do series

Whether you’re dealing with constant demands, the pressure to perform, or the stress of adapting to rapid changes, the workplace is often where you’re tested the most mentally and emotionally. As psychotherapist, speaker, and podcast host Amy Morin discovered, sharpening your mental strength is the key to not only tackling workplace challenges but taking your performance to the next level. The Mental Strength Playbook is specifically designed to help you thrive professionally, with 50 scientifically proven plays you can use right now.

Morin helps you navigate tough but common situations at work, like dealing with anxiety in the middle of a sales call or negotiation, staying on task when you’re feeling overwhelmed, or dealing with difficult coworkers. Learning how to manage your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors will help you recover from setbacks faster and optimize your mental game to excel in high-stakes situations. Her workplace-specific strategies are organized to make solving your specific issue quick and easy and include:

  • Dread Diffusers (Play Behavior Bingo or Use the 10-Minute Rule)
  • Insight Ignitors (Question Your Question or Brainstorm the Bad Ideas First)
  • Anxiety Alleviators (Schedule Time to Worry or Change the Channel in Your Brain)
  • Confidence Catalysts (Channel Your Alter Ego or Visit Your Victory Vault)


Whether you’re struggling with a tight deadline, delivering a high-pressure presentation, or newly leading a team, The Mental Strength Playbook will give you the skills you need to cope with discomfort, prevent burnout, and excel at work.
