How do I become mentally strong?

Plain and simple.

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

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

Do most men prefer curvy women or skinny women?

Here are a few ideas to get you started .

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.

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.

I am still studying engineering. I feel worried being an average student. Can I get a good job in placement, buy a house, and a car? I don't know why I feel this.

3. Turn Off the AC

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

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.

Wow! The changeover from President Biden to VP Kamala Harris as candidate could not have been more successful in just 2 days! It was as if they had been planning it. Could they have planned it? Are you excited by the positive Democratic response?

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).

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

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

What have I done wrong? How can I start over?

I’m just better at handling the suck.

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.

Why is the mainstream media, traditionally liberal except for Fox, not reporting on Trump like he's a traditional candidate who has ideas, values, and a concern for the common good?

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

Before We Begin: The Principle of Progressive Overload

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.

Do you think some men have sex with prostitutes because they're too afraid to talk to women? Money does the talking for them.

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

6. Wake Up Earlier (Without Sleeping Less)

as a Navy SEAL.

Why do guys look up TikTok girls instead of porn? My boyfriend of two years, looks up big boobs on TikTok. He has never once cheated on me, not on social media or IRL. He claims it’s to “get off real quick if I’m not home.”

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

Try it… You’ll see.

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

Can being annoyed be a sign of getting angry?

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.

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.

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

I’d challenge you to stretch your mental

If you were a writer for HBO, how would you rewrite the final season of Game of Thrones?

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

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

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

What is Quora? Are there any tips?

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

Start this off by doing it for one day.

The same way you get physically stronger…

Why are you bare-nakedly displaying your anti-Trump bias while ignoring the liberals' destruction of the US? I am now blocking your e-mails because of your biased articles.

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

Don’t give up quality sleep to do this.

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.

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.

toughness.

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

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.

2. One More Rep

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

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

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.

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

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.

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

Put up with a cold winter afternoon with no heat.

Do 11 pullups instead of 10.

7. Go Through Hell Week

Do 21 pushups instead of 20.

So how do you cultivate mental

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 by turning the AC off.

1. Cold Showers

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

4. Meditate

strength?

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

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 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?)

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.

5. Give Up a Vice

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

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

Another great way to boost your mental

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

Seriously.

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

Our lives are way too easy.

strength isn’t rocket science.

Start with only 12–24 hours.

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.
