And you’ll be amazed by the hidden strength your body has.
It just won’t happen. You have to work up to it and slowly build your mental
So how do you cultivate mental
And it’s exactly how it sounds.
Start this off by doing it for one day.

Within a few months, you’ll be astounded by your levels of 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.
If you could instantly cancel one social norm, what would it be?
strength.
Then slowly work your way up until you can easily go 30–60 days without giving into the temptation.
It’s 7 days of almost no sleep, constant physical exercise, and psychological warfare.
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.
Do just ONE more rep when you don’t think you can.
Do 21 pushups instead of 20.
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.
But anytime you’re doing an exercise where you can safely push yourself, go for just ONE more rep than you’re comfortable doing.
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.
Anytime you’re training in the gym, challenge yourself, once per workout, to do just “One more rep”.
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 love natural, or is it somehow created?
But if you’re doing this SOLELY to test your mental
If you try to do too much too soon, you will burn out and quit EVERY single time.
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 most narcissists have good intentions as long as you are under their control?
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’m just better at handling the suck.
Plain and simple.
Cold showers are bar none one of the FASTEST ways to build mental
Don’t give up quality sleep to do this.
Do 11 pullups instead of 10.
What is it that gives a man who is a submissive cock sucker his most pleasure?
I’d challenge you to stretch your mental
Another great way to boost your mental
Start small in 10–15 minute increments and eventually, you’ll be waking up at 4:30 a.m. like a Navy SEAL.
Our lives are way too easy.
toughness by turning the AC off.
toughness is to wake up earlier.
toughness is to meditate.
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?)
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.
Start now, start small, and work your way up.
Before We Begin: The Principle of Progressive Overload
Put up with a cold winter afternoon with no heat.
One rep, one set, and one step at a time.
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.
Sitting down for 5–30 minutes and doing NOTHING is way harder than it sounds.

When we get hot, we touch a button and voila! The room cools down to a chilly 68 degrees.
The majority of recruits quit. Those who don’t leave the evolution knowing that they can do ANYTHING they set their minds to.
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.
strength isn’t rocket science.
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.
It’s funny…
One of the HARDEST thing you can do to build your mental
toughness, then add some temptation and make it harder to say “No”.
In the Navy SEAL training program, there’s an event known as hell week.
5. Give Up a Vice
as a Navy SEAL.
Mental
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
strength?
The same way you get physically stronger…
3. Turn Off the AC
Try it… You’ll see.
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.
6. Wake Up Earlier (Without Sleeping Less)
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.
If you want to get mentally tougher, start by meditating for only 3 minutes a day.
It’s simply learning to be comfortable doing things you don’t want to do.
Here are a few ideas to get you started .
Seriously.
Sit in the car on a hot day without cranking up the AC.
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.
