How do I become mentally strong?

toughness is to wake up earlier.

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

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.

Should women be allowed in “combat roles” within the military?

Seriously.

Start with only 12–24 hours.

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.

How do atheists explain the fact that when I pray to God, I feel better and I get a feeling of comfort? Doesn’t this prove that a God exists?

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?)

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.

3. Turn Off the AC

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

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.

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 Republicans give permission to Democrats to vote for any candidate except for Kamala Harris?

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

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

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

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

Do 21 pushups instead of 20.

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

How did the trans issue metastasize within just a decade from being a question of kindness and tolerance to a tiny minority to convulsing a whole society?

Mental

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

2. One More Rep

Do you think that the Democratic Party of the USA is not fighting back against Trump? And if so, why do you think so?

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

Plain and simple.

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

Why does everyone hate Anthony Joshua so much? I get that he isn’t the best heavyweight boxer ever but people claim he’s a no skill fighter but he has an Olympic gold medal, a world championship, and beat Klitschko, a dominant force in boxing

Our lives are way too easy.

I’m just better at handling the suck.

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

5. Give Up a Vice

Start this off by doing it for one day.

So how do you cultivate mental

Why is North Korea a jail?

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.

Try it… You’ll see.

What is the logic behind the porn being legal but not prostitution? Isn't it the same thing in essence?

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

It’s funny…

toughness.

Why do Christians think voting for Trump is any better than voting for Kamala Harris?

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

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.

Can you describe your experience taking the AIPMT/NEET entrance exam? Did you feel nervous or afraid while entering the examination hall and writing the exam?

7. Go Through Hell Week

Another great way to boost your mental

toughness by turning the AC off.

Why do I have an itch in my labia, white gooey and thick discharge which doesn't have a smell but my vagina does sometimes and both me and my partner do not have STDs, what is it?

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

toughness is to meditate.

Do 11 pullups instead of 10.

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

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

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

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

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

strength?

Here are a few ideas to get you started .

Put up with a cold winter afternoon with no heat.

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

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

strength over time.

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

as a Navy SEAL.

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

The same way you get physically stronger…

1. Cold Showers

One of the HARDEST thing you can do to build 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.

I’d challenge you to stretch your mental

6. Wake Up Earlier (Without Sleeping Less)

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.

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.

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

And it’s exactly how it sounds.

4. Meditate

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).

strength isn’t rocket science.

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.

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 give up quality sleep to do this.

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

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.
