How do I become mentally strong?

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.

Mental

Can people who have never met you tell if you are a covert narcissist?

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

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

toughness is to meditate.

Why do all the stupid people think Donald J. Trump is stupid?

Seriously.

But if you’re doing this SOLELY to test 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.

What factors may contribute to intelligent individuals identifying as Republican rather than Democrat in the United States today?

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.

Start this off by doing it for one day.

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

If Russia needs the resources to fund the war in Ukraine, why doesn’t it throw open its doors to visa free western tourism? Enough people would be interested, & it would start to get some hard currency as €, CHF, £, SEK, $, JPY in the tills at shops.

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

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.

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

What do you think about Vivian Jenna Wilson's decision to speak out against her father, Elon Musk, in a public interview with NBC News?

Try it… You’ll see.

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

So how do you cultivate mental

Have you ever accidentally found out that you were about to be fired?

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.

Plain and simple.

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

Why is Bollywood failing?

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?)

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

Do 21 pushups instead of 20.

Joe Biden is not the best president we had. That would be John F. Kennedy. How is voting for Donald Trump any worse than voting for Joe Biden?

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.

I’d challenge you to stretch your mental

Another great way to boost your mental

Why do people still think Michael Jackson was guilty?

Put up with a cold winter afternoon with no heat.

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

Before We Begin: The Principle of Progressive Overload

Are you offended if Democrats call Republicans "weird"?

5. Give Up a Vice

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

7. Go Through Hell Week

How often do you watch the news on TV?

3. Turn Off the AC

It’s funny…

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).

Is it true that LGB should drop T?

strength isn’t rocket science.

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.

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

Here are a few ideas to get you started .

Start with only 12–24 hours.

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.

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

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

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

Do 11 pullups instead of 10.

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.

And it’s exactly how it sounds.

strength.

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.

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.

toughness by turning the AC off.

I’m just better at handling the suck.

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

1. Cold Showers

Our lives are way too easy.

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

toughness.

6. Wake Up Earlier (Without Sleeping Less)

as a Navy SEAL.

4. Meditate

toughness is to wake up earlier.

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

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

strength over time.

The same way you get physically stronger…

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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

Don’t give up quality sleep to do this.

2. One More Rep

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

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

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

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