How do I become mentally strong?

Mental

strength over time.

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

What advice would you give to a father of a teenage daughter on how to protect her from boys, dating, and social media? How should fathers discuss these topics with their daughters?

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

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.

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

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

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.

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

What can you do if someone makes a false accusation against you?

Our lives are way too easy.

Don’t give up quality sleep to do this.

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.

Why do atheists love to preach against Abrahamic religions and mock God? Even if they do not fear the eternal fire of hell, pious Muslims will certainly not leave them alone and will take brutal revenge until they surrender and repent of their sins.

3. Turn Off the AC

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

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

Are miracles real or do they just have natural explanations?

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.

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

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

What's your wildest & weirdest fantasy?

Seriously.

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.

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

strength?

Have you ever really seen aliens or UFOs by yourself? Can you share your experience?

toughness is to wake up earlier.

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

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

Can it be true that people know your name, not your story, they’ve heard what you’ve done, but not what you’ve been through, so take their opinions of you with a grain of salt?

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

7. Go Through Hell Week

I’m just better at handling the suck.

Jenny from Perth writes – my partner is the life of the party, women and men adore him. But at home, he gets angry at us for the silliest reasons and never nice words me or our kids, always putting us down. Should I stay or leave him?

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.

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

Hi, I’m Jo. My best friend died 2 years ago today. My husband died 6 months later. So, I’m a depressed mess (we were married 28 years) and can’t shake it. Even my Brother is worried. Some days I don’t do anything, and avoid men cause I don’t want to date. Any suggestions? Thanks for reading.

Try it… You’ll see.

1. Cold Showers

strength isn’t rocket science.

2. One More Rep

Here are a few ideas to get you started .

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

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

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…

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

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).

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

Another great way to boost your mental

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

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

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

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.

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?)

toughness by turning the AC off.

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.

Put up with a cold winter afternoon with no heat.

The same way you get physically stronger…

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.

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.

5. Give Up a Vice

6. Wake Up Earlier (Without Sleeping Less)

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.

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.

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

So how do you cultivate mental

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

strength.

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

as a Navy SEAL.

And it’s exactly how it sounds.

4. Meditate

Plain and simple.

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

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

Start this off by doing it for one day.
