How do I become mentally strong?

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

4. Meditate

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.

Don’t give up quality sleep to do this.

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.

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

7. Go Through Hell Week

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

It’s funny…

strength over time.

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

Let’s say you have 3 separate manuscripts and send 1 of them to 12 different agents (4 read same copy). Now let’s say 2 agents each liked separate manuscripts and want to move forward. What would you do as far as transparency and negotiation?

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

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.

Start with only 12–24 hours.

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.

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.

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

When are the gas prices supposed to go up? Just asking because I was told by "educated" liberals that they were going to go throught the roof, but all I see are prices going down, especially in my home state of Ohio!!!

6. Wake Up Earlier (Without Sleeping Less)

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.

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

Why are people so rude to debt collector’s? I am one and I am so tired of being mistreated. We are under paid and then have to deal with the most ungrateful, and disrespectful people. We aren’t customer service. Don’t get mad at us because YOU owe.

Another great way to boost your mental

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.

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).

What if you were the only and last person left on Earth. How will you survive and what would you do with your life?

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.

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

Our lives are way too easy.

If white people had been slaves, would WLM be a thing right now?

strength isn’t rocket science.

I’d challenge you to stretch your mental

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

Why do people love to live alone in a house?

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

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

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

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

Seriously.

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

3. Turn Off the AC

I’m just better at handling the suck.

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

Plain and simple.

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

Here are a few ideas to get you started .

Put up with a cold winter afternoon with no heat.

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?)

1. Cold Showers

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

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.

as a Navy SEAL.

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.

toughness is to wake up earlier.

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

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

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

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.

Do 21 pushups instead of 20.

2. One More Rep

Do 11 pullups instead of 10.

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

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

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

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

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

toughness by turning the AC off.

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

And it’s exactly how it sounds.

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

The same way you get physically stronger…

Try it… You’ll see.
