How do I become mentally strong?

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.

Try it… You’ll see.

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.

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.

Don’t give up quality sleep to do this.

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

And it’s exactly how it sounds.

Why are American women so ugly nowadays?

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).

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

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

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

1. Cold Showers

Did sharing a wife turn out okay?

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

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

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

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.

So how do you cultivate 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.

Here are a few ideas to get you started .

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

Why do heterosexual men like anal sex with women? I think it's because they secretly want to have anal sex with a man? What do you think?

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

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

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

Why do people procrastinate and how can they stop?

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

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.

3. Turn Off the AC

2. One More Rep

Our lives are way too easy.

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

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.

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

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 now, start small, and work your way up.

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

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.

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.

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.

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

4. Meditate

Plain and simple.

strength over time.

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

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.

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?)

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

Another great way to boost 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.

strength isn’t rocket science.

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

Start this off by doing it for one day.

Seriously.

5. Give Up a Vice

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

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

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