How do I become mentally strong?

But rather, turn off Netflix 15 minutes before you normally do, go to bed earlier, and then wake up earlier.

It just won’t happen. You have to work up to it and slowly build your mental

toughness is to wake up earlier.

Any straight men had a gay experience in the past? What was it and how did you feel?

Try pushing yourself to see how long you can go and, eventually, you’ll wonder why you used climate control in the first place (maybe not… But you’ll still be mentally tougher).

7. Go Through Hell Week

Mental

Why am I not getting any atheists to debate with? Are they scared?

It’s simply learning to be comfortable doing things you don’t want to do.

So apply these strategies slowly. Take small steps and challenge yourself to get 1% tougher every day. After a year has gone by, you’ll be 365% tougher than you were the previous year.

I’d challenge you to stretch your mental

Whether it’s cigarettes, candy, pot, alcohol, or porn, pick a vice that you use everyday, and commit to giving it up for a short period of time.

2. One More Rep

1. Cold Showers

Start this off by doing it for one day.

And you’ll be amazed by the hidden strength your body has.

4. Meditate

What is a good investment portfolio for someone starting in their 20s? 90% VT and 10% BND for a Roth IRA then 100% TDF for a 401k?

But if you’re doing this SOLELY to test your mental

Sitting down for 5–30 minutes and doing NOTHING is way harder than it sounds.

Challenge yourself to do something seemingly impossible for a short amount of time and you will walk away with more mental toughness than you’ve ever had before.

Why are girls supposed to have a stereotypical "hourglass" body shape, and why if you dont have an "hourglass" body shape you get treated differently? It doesnt make any sense to me.

Don’t give up quality sleep to do this.

Start small in 10–15 minute increments and eventually, you’ll be waking up at 4:30 a.m. like a Navy SEAL.

Do just ONE more rep when you don’t think you can.

Do you have any attributes quirks sensitivities abilities etc that you've come to learn most people don't experience? E.g. dream with subtext or experience de ja vu regularly or know you experience life very differently from those around you etc?

Sit in the car on a hot day without cranking up the AC.

Not only will you be saving the environment and helping retrain your body to internally regulate your temperature, but you’ll become stronger by saying “no” to ease, and “yes” to adversity.

Plain and simple.

Our lives are way too easy.

The same way you get physically stronger…

Cold showers are bar none one of the FASTEST ways to build mental

There’s nothing quite like intentionally subjecting yourself to frigid waters and saying “No” to the wonderful warmth of a hot shower when it’s only one twist of the handle away requires insane amounts of discipline and grit.

Do 21 pushups instead of 20.

toughness is to meditate.

Then slowly work your way up until you can easily go 30–60 days without giving into the temptation.

And it’s exactly how it sounds.

It’s funny to me how often people ignore this principle in their lives.

In the Navy SEAL training program, there’s an event known as hell week.

6. Wake Up Earlier (Without Sleeping Less)

Anytime you’re training in the gym, challenge yourself, once per workout, to do just “One more rep”.

This exercise will teach you to keep going even when things are hard and, if applied regularly, will help you become mentally tougher than any other person you know.

Cold showers suck. I’ve taken them (almost) everyday for nearly 6 years and they don’t suck any less today than they did when I started.

Seriously.

So how do you cultivate mental

I’m just better at handling the suck.

strength?

Put up with a cold winter afternoon with no heat.

Leave a bowl of candy on the table. Leave an open pack of cigarettes in your office. Go to an, *ahem* “gentlemanly” website and leave it open in a minimized browser.

Whether it’s total sobriety combined with waking up at 5 a.m., daily exercise, and no television for a week.Or simply one week of giving up your strongest addiction.

strength isn’t rocket science.

One rep, one set, and one step at a time.

Within a few months, you’ll be astounded by your levels of mental

Start now, start small, and work your way up.

If you are seriously wanting to give up a vice (like smoking or drinking), you’ll want to throw away anything that reminds you of it.

If you want to get mentally tougher, start by meditating for only 3 minutes a day.

It’s funny…

Start with only 12–24 hours.

If you try to do too much too soon, you will burn out and quit EVERY single time.

Do 11 pullups instead of 10.

3. Turn Off the AC

Try it… You’ll see.

The majority of recruits quit. Those who don’t leave the evolution knowing that they can do ANYTHING they set their minds to.

Another great way to boost your mental

But anytime you’re doing an exercise where you can safely push yourself, go for just ONE more rep than you’re comfortable doing.

Here are a few ideas to get you started .

toughness by turning the AC off.

While I don’t recommend giving up sleep for a week and doing thousands of pushups (unless you have a thing for broken bones and screwed up joints), I challenge you to create your own Hell Week.

Challenge yourself and you’ll be amazed by the results.

Add 1–2 minutes each week and, overtime, not only will you be mentally tougher, but you’ll be more present, less stressed, and more productive in your everyday life.

One of the HARDEST thing you can do to build your mental

It’s 7 days of almost no sleep, constant physical exercise, and psychological warfare.

Have a short event where you complete a certain set of mentally challenging activities every day.

toughness, then add some temptation and make it harder to say “No”.

Increase the amount of time you spend in the cold by only 10–30 seconds a week and, after a few months, you’ll be able to take 10 minute cold showers with ease.

DON’T do this on the bench press or squat rack if you don’t have a spotter (there’s nothing mentally tough about breaking your back or killing yourself ok?)

In the same way that you can’t go to the gym, deadlift 225 lbs. for 5 reps one week and then expect to lift 405 lbs. for 5 reps the next week, you can’t expect to just wake up one day and be as mentally strong
