Mental toughness is to physical as four is to one.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Toughness is in the soul and spirit, not in muscles.
I have always maintained that in basketball the importance of the mental to the physical is about four to one.
I suppose there is a lot of toughness in me.
I'm stronger than I think I am. Mentally, physically.
Part of what we talk about is, toughness is a talent.
I may not be the most physically tough player, but I think mentally I'm right up there.
By nature I am not tough, believe it or not.
At the end of the day, you can be physically strong, you can have all the tools out there, but if your mental state isn't good enough, you can't bring yourself to bigger and better things.
Concentration and mental toughness are the margins of victory.
Every mental state is also physical.
