What I always hear is “grow thick skin”. I guess there should be a process to do that or a mental training. But how?
I don’t talk about insensitivity or sociopath behaviour, but more like being toughy when it comes to little problem.

There’s a style of therapy called Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). A therapist helps you identify and practice different strategies to reduce unwanted behaviors or negative thoughts.
It works by helping you learn to identify what triggers the negative behavior, and how to interrupt it, in a sense. Like any skill, over time you can get better at this, to the point that it becomes almost automatic.
(Edit)
I’m currently seeing a CBT therapist to help me deal with some depression symptoms. When I say they help you “practice”, I really do mean it. I’ve literally been given worksheets to fill out for myself.
