How do I become mentally strong?

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

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.

Have you ever had sex with your mother-in-law? If so, how was it and did your wife ever find out?

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

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

6. Wake Up Earlier (Without Sleeping Less)

Start with only 12–24 hours.

Seriously.

Have you ever been humiliated in front of a group of girls and enjoyed it?

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.

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

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

Why do I feel like something bad is going to happen to me?

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.

strength?

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 you ever feel like you are doing good, but would do better if people hadn’t blamed you or even bothered you? I have gotten lonely, but I always am up to something (creating my destiny).

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.

I’m just better at handling the suck.

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.

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.

What made you recently say to yourself, “Wait. Really?”

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

It’s funny…

Hello, I have a question about astral projection. I started to get interested in this a little while after my mum passed in april. I thought I may be able to see her and speak with her if I managed to achieve astral projection. Since this interest, every time i sleep on my back I go into sleep paralysis. However, I cant progress into astral projection because it is very scary for me as I feel like I'm suffocating when this happens. I panic and force myself to wake up. This only ever happened about once a year before this. It sometimes lasts a long time. This has happened about 3 times per week since my mum died, as mentioned on a previous post. I no longer try to go into it anymore(due to the suffocating feeling), but it still happens. I read that sleep paralysis is the pathway to astral projection. Why has this started to happen so frequently since simply taking an interest in it? Is this connected to the afterlife? I am concerned about it as I now cannot seem to stop this happening. Could it be my mum trying to communicate? Im asking due to more knowledge around this in this group.

2. One More Rep

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.

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?)

7. Go Through Hell Week

1. Cold Showers

The same way you get physically stronger…

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

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.

Mental

Our lives are way too easy.

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

And it’s exactly how it sounds.

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.

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

4. Meditate

as a Navy SEAL.

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

5. Give Up a Vice

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.

Try it… You’ll see.

Do 11 pullups instead of 10.

toughness is to wake up earlier.

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

Start this off by doing it for one day.

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

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

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.

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

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

strength over time.

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

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

3. Turn Off the AC

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).

Do 21 pushups instead of 20.

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

Don’t give up quality sleep to do this.

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