mental endurance
Sustained cognitive fortitude
Mental endurance is the capacity to sustain focus, effort, or composure through prolonged difficulty or stress.
Where physical endurance concerns the body's stamina, mental endurance involves psychological resilience—the ability to push through boredom, frustration, or emotional strain without giving up: Marathon running requires mental endurance as much as physical fitness.
