How do I become mentally strong?

Another great way to boost your mental

4. Meditate

5. Give Up a Vice

If you have curly hair, when should you brush it?

Try it… You’ll see.

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

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

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

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

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.

How do I seduce my sister? (I am an Indian) I want to have sex with her.?

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?)

3. Turn Off the AC

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.

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

toughness is to meditate.

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

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

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

Before We Begin: The Principle of Progressive Overload

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

I'm very sick. 72 years old. I thinking I'm losing my mind. My dead friend told me it's going to be okay. I could feel him. There is more…I don't know what but more.

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

2. One More Rep

toughness is to wake up earlier.

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.

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

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.

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.

Can a dental anesthesia injection cause nerve damage? After receiving an injection in my gums I felt a sharp tingle going from the gum to my lower lip, and now sometimes I get a bit of itchiness and discomfort in my lower lip. What is it?

7. Go Through Hell Week

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.

strength isn’t rocket science.

Why do people procrastinate and how can they stop?

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.

Mental

Do 11 pullups instead of 10.

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

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

And it’s exactly how it sounds.

toughness.

Our lives are way too easy.

Seriously.

Don’t give up quality sleep to do this.

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

as a Navy SEAL.

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).

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

strength over time.

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

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

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

Start this off by doing it for one day.

Do 21 pushups instead of 20.

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.

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

Here are a few ideas to get you started .

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.

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 same way you get physically stronger…

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

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.

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

It’s funny…

6. Wake Up Earlier (Without Sleeping Less)

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.

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

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

Start with only 12–24 hours.
