How do I become mentally strong?

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

Start with only 12–24 hours.

Do 11 pullups instead of 10.

What is your opinion? I am 150-152 and I feel short. I’m 15 years old. I feel like this makes me look like a baby and ugly on most clothes.

1. Cold Showers

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

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

How do you view men and women who cheat?

I’d challenge you to stretch your mental

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

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

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

Plain and simple.

Mental

Why do some women alter their faces by so-called cosmetic surgeries (on their eyes, cheeks, lips, chin, jaw) that making them look like Donald Duck or puffy aliens, while for most men these unnatural facial changes are ridiculous or even disgusting?

I’m just better at handling the suck.

Start this off by doing it for one day.

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.

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

The same way you get physically stronger…

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.

3. Turn Off the AC

What can I do after 18 cops raided my home, without a warrant, seeking a person who didn't live there and wasn't there, and also went through all of my stuff? The person wasn't on the lease, and they didn't see him enter.

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

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.

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

Why does monistat lose effectiveness over time for individuals with chronic or recurrent vaginosis or yeast infections?

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

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.

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…

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

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.

4. Meditate

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.

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

So how do you cultivate mental

strength isn’t rocket science.

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.

strength.

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).

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

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

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

And it’s exactly how it sounds.

toughness is to wake up earlier.

2. One More Rep

Here are a few ideas to get you started .

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

6. Wake Up Earlier (Without Sleeping Less)

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

toughness by turning the AC off.

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.

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

toughness.

5. Give Up a Vice

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

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?)

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

Seriously.

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

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

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

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

Try it… You’ll see.

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

Put up with a cold winter afternoon with no heat.

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.
