How do I become mentally strong?

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

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.

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

Can bosses get fired for being too hard on employees?

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

It’s funny…

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

My friend asked my crush and he said my crush hates me but not in a rude way. What does that mean?

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.

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?)

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

Why does cocaine makes me want to dress up and get fuck

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

Before We Begin: The Principle of Progressive Overload

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.

How many girls or guys keep extra pantyhose in their glove box or console of their vehicle?

Start out small with only 10–30 seconds after your normal shower.

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

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

Why do some people never get to on a date even though they wanted to? Are they just too ugly and weird for everybody?

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

I’d challenge you to stretch your mental

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.

Has anyone experienced an out of the body experience, as a child, years before you had ever heard the term or understood the implications?

Our lives are way too easy.

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.

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

I always feel very tired after I do some exercises, even after a night's sleep. What's the problem?

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.

When we get hot, we touch a button and voila! The room cools down to a chilly 68 degrees.

1. Cold Showers

What’s a mistake most guys make when trying to get a girlfriend?

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

Try it… You’ll see.

Put up with a cold winter afternoon with no heat.

Do you think Christine Lagarde will be headed and will be heading for success in the next French presidential elections starting as soon as 2027?

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

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

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

Why do old men think young women and girls would want them over guys their own age?

Seriously.

Another great way to boost your mental

toughness is to wake up earlier.

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

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.

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

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

6. Wake Up Earlier (Without Sleeping Less)

The same way you get physically stronger…

strength isn’t rocket science.

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

I’m just better at handling the suck.

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).

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

Start this off by doing it for one day.

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

toughness by turning the AC off.

strength.

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.

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.

2. One More Rep

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

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

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

And it’s exactly how it sounds.

Start with only 12–24 hours.

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

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.

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

5. Give Up a Vice

strength?

Do 21 pushups instead of 20.

4. Meditate

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

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.

toughness is to meditate.

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.

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.

Don’t give up quality sleep to do this.

So how do you cultivate mental

Plain and simple.

Here are a few ideas to get you started .
