How do I become mentally strong?

Put up with a cold winter afternoon with no heat.

2. One More Rep

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

When you visit a store, do you go to shop or buy?

Plain and simple.

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

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

What do you like about McDonald's?

Try it… You’ll see.

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.

Start with only 12–24 hours.

Could the guys here tell me how their first experience with a trans woman was? Who was the lady to you? ( I mean girlfriend, one night stand, etc.) I just had my first experience recently and I would like to know about others?

3. Turn Off the AC

What is the meanest thing your husband has said to you?

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

I’m just better at handling the suck.

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

Can I see some saggy tit pics and huge areolas pics?

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.

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

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

Why does everyone hate Anthony Joshua so much? I get that he isn’t the best heavyweight boxer ever but people claim he’s a no skill fighter but he has an Olympic gold medal, a world championship, and beat Klitschko, a dominant force in boxing

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

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

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

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

So how do you cultivate mental

What are some mind-blowing facts about Michael Jackson?

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?)

And it’s exactly how it sounds.

5. Give Up a Vice

Here are a few ideas to get you started .

Do 11 pullups instead of 10.

What would happen if the Earth stopped spinning for one minute?

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

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.

toughness.

What kind of person does a narcissist hate?

strength isn’t rocket science.

The same way you get physically stronger…

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

Don’t give up quality sleep to do this.

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

7. Go Through Hell Week

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.

toughness by turning the AC off.

Do 21 pushups instead of 20.

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.

Seriously.

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).

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.

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.

I’d challenge you to stretch your mental

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

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

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.

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

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

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

Start this off by doing it for one day.

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.

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.

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