Plain and simple.
But rather, turn off Netflix 15 minutes before you normally do, go to bed earlier, and then wake up earlier.
One rep, one set, and one step at a time.
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.
3. Turn Off the AC
toughness is to wake up earlier.
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…
strength.
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.
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.
7. Go Through Hell Week
Put up with a cold winter afternoon with no heat.
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.
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.
What is one thing which you cannot stop however hard you try?
Seriously.
Start now, start small, and work your way up.
strength over time.
Can ringing in the ears be a sign of spiritual awakening?
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.
Another great way to boost your mental
Then slowly work your way up until you can easily go 30–60 days without giving into the temptation.
What’s the craziest thing you’ve heard pretending to be asleep?
Start out small with only 10–30 seconds after your normal shower.
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.
Sit in the car on a hot day without cranking up the AC.
My boyfriend won’t tell me his past and it hurts me so I broke up with him what do I do?
strength isn’t rocket science.
Start with only 12–24 hours.
But anytime you’re doing an exercise where you can safely push yourself, go for just ONE more rep than you’re comfortable doing.

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

What are some downsides to living in Newfoundland and Labrador (besides the weather)?
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.
Start small in 10–15 minute increments and eventually, you’ll be waking up at 4:30 a.m. like a Navy SEAL.
as a Navy SEAL.
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
Challenge yourself and you’ll be amazed by the results.
Sitting down for 5–30 minutes and doing NOTHING is way harder than it sounds.
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?)

Our lives are way too easy.
6. Wake Up Earlier (Without Sleeping Less)
The majority of recruits quit. Those who don’t leave the evolution knowing that they can do ANYTHING they set their minds to.
Try it… You’ll see.
Do 21 pushups instead of 20.
When we get hot, we touch a button and voila! The room cools down to a chilly 68 degrees.

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

One of the HARDEST thing you can do to build your mental
Do just ONE more rep when you don’t think you can.
In the Navy SEAL training program, there’s an event known as hell week.
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 7 days of almost no sleep, constant physical exercise, and psychological warfare.
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.
I’m just better at handling the suck.
Anytime you’re training in the gym, challenge yourself, once per workout, to do just “One more rep”.
It just won’t happen. You have to work up to it and slowly build your mental
