How do I become mentally strong?

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

Start with only 12–24 hours.

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

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

Here are a few ideas to get you started .

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).

Plain and simple.

4. Meditate

Mental

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.

Why do flat Earthers run away like whipped dogs with their tails between their legs when asked simple questions that expose their delusions as fantasy?

Another great way to boost your mental

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

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.

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

Do you think it is likely that Maegor was presented a young dragon at some point, almost to the point of full-bonding, only to scorn it for Balerion in the end? If so, which one could it have been?

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

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.

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.

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

1. Cold Showers

Start this off by doing it for one day.

Why is it difficult to get a job?

Try it… You’ll see.

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.

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.

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

Seriously.

How is it, in the USA, a country with 334 million people, the choice of President comes down to two aged men, one of whom is a liar as well as a criminal, one who appears to be on his way to dementia. Surely a democratic country can put up better?

toughness by turning the AC off.

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.

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

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

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

I’d challenge you to stretch your mental

toughness is to wake up earlier.

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

2. One More Rep

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

3. Turn Off the AC

7. Go Through Hell Week

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.

6. Wake Up Earlier (Without Sleeping Less)

Do 11 pullups instead of 10.

Put up with a cold winter afternoon with no heat.

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

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.

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

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

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

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.

Our lives are way too easy.

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

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.

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 now, start small, and work your way up.

I’m just better at handling the suck.

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.

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

Do 21 pushups instead of 20.

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

It’s funny…

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