How do I become mentally strong?

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

Mental

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

Our lives are way too easy.

Put up with a cold winter afternoon with no heat.

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.

What is the reason behind some people referring to themselves as "nice guys" instead of simply being nice?

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.

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

It seems that I am cursed with bad luck. How do I break such a curse?

And it’s exactly how it sounds.

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

How do I know if he loves me? When he wants me to be his gf he make time for me and send me morning and night messages and done everything to melt my heart. Now I am his gf and he don't treat me that way now.

toughness is to wake up earlier.

Start this off by doing it for one day.

How do people who are deaf learn sign language? Is it typically taught by parents at a young age or are there programs available for learning it later in life?

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

4. Meditate

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.

Do interviewers discriminate against a candidate if he or she is overweight (assuming physical fitness is NOT part of the job requirements)?

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.

The same way you get physically stronger…

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

What do people aim for when they meditate, and how do they do it properly?

I’m just better at handling the suck.

5. Give Up a Vice

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

Plain and simple.

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

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

Do 11 pullups instead of 10.

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

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

Here are a few ideas to get you started .

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.

How do you get a girl to like you?

toughness is to meditate.

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.

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

Start with only 12–24 hours.

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

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.

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

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

6. Wake Up Earlier (Without Sleeping Less)

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

7. Go Through Hell Week

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

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

strength isn’t rocket science.

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.

Do 21 pushups instead of 20.

1. Cold Showers

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.

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

I’d challenge you to stretch your mental

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

Don’t give up quality sleep to do this.

toughness by turning the AC off.

It’s funny…

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

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

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.

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.

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?)

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

Another great way to boost your mental

So how do you cultivate mental

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

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

Try it… You’ll see.

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

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).

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

2. One More Rep

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.
