How do I become mentally strong?

So how do you cultivate mental

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

Another great way to boost your mental

There's no way Republican Trump won all seven swing states. How was he able to cheat and steal the election?

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

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.

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

I gave him everything. He said he loved me. Why?

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?)

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

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

If Trump were to lose in 2024, would that be the end of his grip on the Republican Party?

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.

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.

Our lives are way too easy.

What can I do when I'm ugly on both outside and inside? What do I do? Cut myself off from the world to make everyones lives better? I'm a monster. I hurt feelings, and I say what was said to me. I feel like I'm nothing but a burden. What do I do?

6. Wake Up Earlier (Without Sleeping Less)

toughness is to wake up earlier.

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

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.

Riddle: How do budget cuts, DEI hires, and empty reservoirs, turn the bluest, most Democrat city Red?

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

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

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

At what stage in your life did you realize, "No, I can't do this any more" and walk out? Why?

5. Give Up a Vice

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

Seriously.

Why is it rare for someone to despise both the Democrats and Republicans?

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.

Why do I get stressed when I go to bed?

Do 11 pullups instead of 10.

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

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

The same way you get physically stronger…

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

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).

Here are a few ideas to get you started .

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

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

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

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

Start with only 12–24 hours.

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

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.

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

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

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.

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

It’s funny…

And it’s exactly how it sounds.

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.

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

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.

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

I’d challenge you to stretch your mental

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 this off by doing it for one day.

I’m just better at handling the suck.

4. Meditate

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

Plain and simple.

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

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

Put up with a cold winter afternoon with no heat.
