How do I become mentally strong?

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?)

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

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

Can you share the entire summary of your spiritual life?

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

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).

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

How did you respond to, "Why do you love me"?

Our lives are way too easy.

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

Don’t give up quality sleep to do this.

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.

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.

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.

So how do you cultivate mental

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.

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

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.

Why would a man be interested in an ordinary woman while there are very beautiful and fabulous women?

I’d challenge you to stretch your mental

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.

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

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

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

Why are Republican politicians so afraid to oppose Trump?

5. Give Up a Vice

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

7. Go Through Hell Week

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

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

4. Meditate

Why can't we send flat Earthers to space and show them the shape of Earth?

Start this off by doing it for one day.

It’s funny…

Why do I feel like I want to suck a big dick after injecting meth?

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.

Try it… You’ll see.

I’m just better at handling the suck.

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

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

strength isn’t rocket science.

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

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

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

Do 21 pushups instead of 20.

toughness is to meditate.

Start with only 12–24 hours.

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

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

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

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.

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.
