How do I become mentally strong?

And it’s exactly how it sounds.

So how do you cultivate mental

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?)

My blog is new. I need 10 article posts for my blog. How much should I pay for it?

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

strength isn’t rocket science.

I’m just better at handling the suck.

Why do I want to suck cock, after smoking methamphetamine?

toughness is to wake up earlier.

strength.

strength over time.

What is the process of becoming an Evangelical preacher? Is attending seminary school necessary? How long does it typically take? Is it financially challenging?

Do 11 pullups instead of 10.

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).

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 would my ex block me after I blocked him?

The same way you get physically stronger…

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

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

Why do older people have a hard time using technology?

Plain and simple.

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

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

Why do men cheat on their wives with someone extremely unattractive?

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.

It’s funny…

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

How do I convince my husband that a threesome is okay?

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.

Before We Begin: The Principle of Progressive Overload

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.

Is the Donald Trump Bible any different from a regular Bible? Has Trump altered its contents?

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

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

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.

Who are the archers in Genesis 49:23?

7. Go Through Hell Week

Another great way to boost your mental

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

What is truer than that which is true?

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

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

4. Meditate

Why do I sweat so much after applying moisture or sun screen on my face? I have normal skin.

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.

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

6. Wake Up Earlier (Without Sleeping Less)

Ok, so this is a question seeking an answer to clear up whatever gymnastics are in my head. I'm a moderately attractive guy, sincere heart, genuinely looking to love another, established. Why don't women that I'm attracted to, want me back?

I’d challenge you to stretch your mental

Mental

toughness is to meditate.

What do you think about the NFA full auto band? Weapons built before 1986 can be transferred and registered? But we can't have an 87? But older weapons tend to be far more powerful. I think we should drop it. Input?

Start with only 12–24 hours.

Put up with a cold winter afternoon with no heat.

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

Don’t give up quality sleep to do this.

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

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

5. Give Up a Vice

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.

as a Navy SEAL.

toughness by turning the AC off.

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

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.

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

Try it… You’ll see.

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

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

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

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

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

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.

1. Cold Showers

Our lives are way too easy.

Start this off by doing it for one day.

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

strength?

3. Turn Off the AC

Here are a few ideas to get you started .

Seriously.

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

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

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

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.

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.

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

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

toughness.

2. One More Rep

Do 21 pushups instead of 20.

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.

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