How do I become mentally strong?

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?)

So how do you cultivate mental

How can I stop drinking?

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.

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

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.

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

Here are a few ideas to get you started .

Why do women stubbornly refuse to let men lead, even though they are attracted to the man, and the man both loves and desires them? Why do they get angry and blame the man when he gets fed up and walks away, when it's entirely their own fault?

Don’t give up quality sleep to do this.

1. Cold Showers

2. One More Rep

Does believing in God and Satan cause schizophrenia?

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

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

Start this off by doing it for one day.

Do you think Christine Lagarde will be headed and will be heading for success in the next French presidential elections starting as soon as 2027?

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

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

Do 21 pushups instead of 20.

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.

How do scammers communicate? Do they have a specific language or slang?

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.

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.

Are there many people here who suffer from schizophrenia?

toughness.

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.

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

What is something you want to "get off your chest"?

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

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

3. Turn Off the AC

I’m just better at handling the suck.

Start with only 12–24 hours.

strength.

And it’s exactly how it sounds.

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

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

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.

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

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

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.

Another great way to boost your mental

toughness by turning the AC off.

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

Our lives are way too easy.

It’s funny…

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

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

toughness is to wake up earlier.

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.

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

strength isn’t rocket science.

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

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

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

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

The same way you get physically stronger…

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).

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

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

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.

Seriously.

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

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.

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

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.

5. Give Up a Vice

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