Humility and Dependability in Mental Toughness

The key to mental toughness lies in humility and dependability. Those who exhibit true mental toughness prioritize not letting down their comrades over personal fears, even more than the fear of death. They understand the importance of asking for help and recognize that as social beings, humans are not designed to survive in isolation. Success, according to researcher John Casiopa, is not about individual capability but about being a reliable and supportive member of a social species.
