How do I become mentally strong?

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.

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).

Our lives are way too easy.

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

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

Put up with a cold winter afternoon with no heat.

What are some alternatives to wearing a bra? Why do some women feel pressure to wear bras even though there may not be any benefits?

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

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

toughness is to wake up earlier.

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

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

I’d challenge you to stretch your mental

Here are a few ideas to get you started .

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.

Don’t give up quality sleep to do this.

7. Go Through Hell Week

Plain and simple.

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

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.

Another great way to boost your mental

strength.

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

Start with only 12–24 hours.

2. One More Rep

strength over time.

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.

Do 11 pullups instead of 10.

toughness is to meditate.

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

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

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.

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

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

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

5. Give Up a Vice

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

3. Turn Off the AC

6. Wake Up Earlier (Without Sleeping Less)

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

Do 21 pushups instead of 20.

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.

I’m just better at handling the suck.

4. Meditate

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

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