How do I become mentally strong?

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.

Plain and simple.

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

Why do women stubbornly refuse to let men lead, even though they are attracted to the man, and the man both loves and desires them? Why do they get angry and blame the man when he gets fed up and walks away, when it's entirely their own fault?

I’m just better at handling the suck.

7. Go Through Hell Week

In my experience, British people are fat, ugly and arrogant. Why is it and can it be changed?

Before We Begin: The Principle of Progressive Overload

Start this off by doing it for one day.

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

Does the pro-choice movement realise that all the money used to subside abortions can be used to subsidize daycare and other financial support for single mothers with unplanned pregnancies?

So how do you cultivate mental

Try it… You’ll see.

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

What discoveries in AI research have changed our understanding of intelligence evolution?

4. Meditate

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

Do 11 pullups instead of 10.

How severely should I get punished? Please describe throughly. Today I got my result of my test nd I found out that I failed in 2 subjects, my parents are currently in abroad nd I lied to them about the fail but I feel guilty now.

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

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

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?)

Do guys ever want to suck a dick even though they are straight?

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

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.

Don’t give up quality sleep to do this.

Has anyone tried bestiality and been caught?

strength isn’t rocket science.

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

Here are a few ideas to get you started .

What can I do after 18 cops raided my home, without a warrant, seeking a person who didn't live there and wasn't there, and also went through all of my stuff? The person wasn't on the lease, and they didn't see him enter.

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.

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

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

Everyone says the pet population is out of control. Everyone says you MUST spay or neuter your pets. No one wants to talk about how its almost $1,000 to spay or neuter a pet. Why is it so expensive if its so necessary? Animal shelters do it for free.

Put up with a cold winter afternoon with no heat.

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.

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.

Have you ever accidentally seen your mother-in-law doing something that was private to her?

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

strength?

toughness is to wake up earlier.

With so much evidence supporting the flat Earth theory, why aren't more resources dedicated to studying it?

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

Seriously.

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

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.

Do 21 pushups instead of 20.

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

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

1. Cold Showers

as a Navy SEAL.

Another great way to boost your mental

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

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

toughness by turning the AC off.

It’s funny…

The same way you get physically stronger…

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).

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.

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

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

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.

And it’s exactly how it sounds.

6. Wake Up Earlier (Without Sleeping Less)

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.

I’d challenge you to stretch your 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.

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.

2. One More Rep

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

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

strength over time.

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

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.

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.

Our lives are way too easy.

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.

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

Mental

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

3. Turn Off the AC

Start with only 12–24 hours.

toughness is to meditate.

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

5. Give Up a Vice
