How do I become mentally strong?

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

strength isn’t rocket science.

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

I’d challenge you to stretch your mental

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.

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

Why do I keep dreaming of my mom, who recently passed away from cancer, still being sick and in pain?

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

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

2. One More Rep

Put up with a cold winter afternoon with no heat.

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

Plain and simple.

Here are a few ideas to get you started .

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

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.

1. Cold Showers

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

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.

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

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.

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

Start this off by doing it for one day.

Start with only 12–24 hours.

It’s funny…

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.

Our lives are way too easy.

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

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.

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

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.

Do 11 pullups instead of 10.

toughness is to wake up earlier.

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).

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

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

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

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

Don’t give up quality sleep to do this.

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?)

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

7. Go Through Hell Week

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)

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

Mental

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

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

And it’s exactly how it sounds.

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

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.

Another great way to boost your mental
