How do I become mentally strong?

4. Meditate

Put up with a cold winter afternoon with no heat.

Plain and simple.

Why do Trump supporters believe Trump should deport the immigrants? These people you call "illegal immigrants" have lived here for many years, they have houses, jobs, how can you think they will just go back to their country, where they have nothing?

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

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

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

Why do Darwin atheists not like facts of Genesis? I’ve noticed they block and dismiss everything a person states. Is that how science works to hide when a truth comes at them?

toughness is to meditate.

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

I’m just better at handling the suck.

Why does TikTok allow porn stars in its platform? Isn't it aimed at teenagers?

Our lives are way too easy.

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

6. Wake Up Earlier (Without Sleeping Less)

Why do I sweat so much? I’m 17 but I feel like I always need to re-apply deodorant and I am always self-conscious that I smell because I feel sweat under my arms.

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?)

strength isn’t rocket science.

It’s funny…

Why is it so hard to date nowadays?

Mental

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

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.

Here are a few ideas to get you started .

3. Turn Off the AC

What are some downsides to living in Newfoundland and Labrador (besides the weather)?

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.

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.

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

Is there scientific evidence for reincarnation? If so, how does it work and can it be proven through regression therapy?

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.

7. Go Through Hell Week

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

What will the legacy of Jimmy Carter be in light of his death today at 100?

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

toughness.

Seriously.

How do people move on so quickly? I’m still sprung over someone I was dating and he found someone else so fast. I feel hurt because I’m still head over heels over him while he’s out enjoying his life with someone new

Another great way to boost your mental

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.

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.

The Labour Party wants to put the Winter fuel allowance and the £800,000 of gifts received by ministers behind us. Is this a real option for the people who will suffer as our new masters unapologeticly feast on freebies?

2. One More Rep

So how do you cultivate mental

Try it… You’ll see.

Start this off by doing it for one day.

The same way you get physically stronger…

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.

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

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

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

5. Give Up a Vice

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

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

Do 21 pushups instead of 20.

toughness by turning the AC off.

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

Start with only 12–24 hours.

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

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.

Don’t give up quality sleep to do this.

as 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.

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

1. Cold Showers

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

Do 11 pullups instead of 10.

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

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

strength?

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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.

I’d challenge you to stretch 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.

And it’s exactly how it sounds.

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

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

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).

Before We Begin: The Principle of Progressive Overload

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.

strength over time.

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

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