How do I become mentally strong?

Another great way to boost your mental

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.

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

toughness.

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.

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.

Why do you write?

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

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

Do 11 pullups instead of 10.

While wearing high heels and walking heel to toe, when the toe box hit the floor there is a noise. How do I keep the noise just for the heel?

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

Try it… You’ll see.

Is it common for female doctors to examine male patients without another nurse present? Is there a difference in protocol for nurses and physician assistants?

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

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

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

Delta Force selection is originally based on SAS selection, so why is there no brutal jungle phase for Delta Force? It seems like it's based only on the Brecon Beacons section.

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

4. Meditate

as a Navy SEAL.

Why do some straight men enjoy wearing women's lingerie?

So how do you cultivate mental

strength?

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.

Is it accurate to say that while Donald Trump has "America First" policy, the Democratic Party has "Other nations first" policy?

7. Go Through Hell Week

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

Plain and simple.

Why did Donald Trump look so old during the debate?

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.

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.

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

Why is it rare for someone to despise both the Democrats and Republicans?

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

The same way you get physically stronger…

Do 21 pushups instead of 20.

Why are Boomers so vehemently opposed to student loan forgiveness?

toughness is to meditate.

3. Turn Off the AC

I’m just better at handling the suck.

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

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?)

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.

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

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.

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

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

Put up with a cold winter afternoon with no heat.

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

I’d challenge you to stretch your mental

Start this off by doing it for one day.

Seriously.

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

strength isn’t rocket science.

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

toughness by turning the AC off.

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

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 to me how often people ignore this principle in their lives.

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

Here are a few ideas to get you started .

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

2. One More Rep

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

toughness is to wake up earlier.
