10 Habits That Will Give You a Bulletproof Mindset

10 Habits That Will Give You a Bulletproof MindsetUploaded 17-09-26In this video we break down the psychology of what a bulletproof mind actually is, and why most mental toughness advice has been pointing you in the wrong direction. Brooke Macnamara and Alexander Burgoyne's 2023 review in Psychological Bulletin found that most mindset interventions carried confounds, and the better designed the study, the smaller the effect got. Albert Bandura's decades of research point somewhere else entirely: mastery experience, having already done the hard thing, is the strongest predictor of self-belief there is.From there we walk through ten habits split into three jobs your mind needs done. Collecting evidence, using Lucas LaFreniere and Michelle Newman's 2020 finding that over ninety percent of tracked worries never came true. Testing predictions, using Gary Klein's premortem technique and Alia Crum's research on stress mindset. And spreading the load, drawing on Ethan Kross and Jason Moser's work on distanced self-talk, so no single hit can take the whole structure down.The hits still come. What changes is what your mind finds when it opens the file afterward.Which of the three groups is your weakest? Collecting the evidence, testing the predictions, or carrying everything on one plate. Tell me in the comments, and be honest about it.#Psychology #Mindset #MentalToughness #SelfImprovement #Resilience #Confidence #Psychtoons---Research referenced:- Macnamara, B. N., and Burgoyne, A.
