How do I become mentally strong?

Don’t give up quality sleep to do this.

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

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?)

Why do a lot of women have a crush on my boyfriend when they know he is in a relationship with me? I am starting to feel insecure too. What should I do?

4. Meditate

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.

5. Give Up a Vice

Why did Trump’s team spin the lie that Melania Trump spoke several languages? Do they not realize she can hardly speak English after living in the US for over 40 years?

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.

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

Start this off by doing it for one day.

Should you have a threesome with your best friend and your significant other if the significant other requests it?

It’s funny…

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

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.

strength.

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

1. Cold Showers

Why do atheists want to see God so badly?

2. One More Rep

Do 21 pushups instead of 20.

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

What makes outside showers appealing? Why are they not commonly seen?

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

Seriously.

The same way you get physically stronger…

What is the best interracial stories that you hear or know and want to share?

And it’s exactly how it sounds.

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

7. Go Through Hell Week

What is your review of "Regent", episode 5 of Season 2 House of the Dragon?

I’m just better at handling the suck.

Do 11 pullups instead of 10.

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.

How long can someone with narcissistic tendencies maintain a facade of fake love before their true self is revealed? Is there a specific trigger or amount of time that causes them to reveal their true nature?

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.

6. Wake Up Earlier (Without Sleeping Less)

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

How do I get off Paxil?

Start with only 12–24 hours.

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

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.

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

Put up with a cold winter afternoon with no heat.

Another great way to boost your mental

Plain and simple.

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

How do you explain the involvement of a mainland Chinese visitor, her local relative, and a 65-year-old friend of the latter in the suspected money laundering case seized by Hong Kong police?

Here are a few ideas to get you started .

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

as a Navy SEAL.

At what stage in your life did you realize, "No, I can't do this any more" and walk out? Why?

3. Turn Off the AC

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

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

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

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

toughness by turning the AC off.

So how do you cultivate mental

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

toughness is to meditate.

strength over time.

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.

Try it… You’ll see.

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

toughness.

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

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

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.

Our lives are way too easy.

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

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.

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.

I’d challenge you to stretch your mental

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

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

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

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

Before We Begin: The Principle of Progressive Overload

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.

strength isn’t rocket science.

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.

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.

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

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

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).

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

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