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

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.

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

It’s been over a month since I stopped taking sertraline but why do I still feel side effects like brain zaps and anxiety mood changes? The root cause of anxiety it’s your thinking and I perfectly master that better than before so it’s hard lately.

And it’s exactly how it sounds.

toughness.

I was awaken between 2-3am by a voice that said “Hey”. Literally right next to my ear. Sounded like a males voice, but it wasn’t stern or deep. What could this mean?

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.

It’s funny…

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.

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

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

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

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

7. Go Through Hell Week

Another great way to boost your mental

The same way you get physically stronger…

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

Do 21 pushups instead of 20.

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.

Plain and simple.

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

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

toughness is to meditate.

Put up with a cold winter afternoon with no heat.

6. Wake Up Earlier (Without Sleeping Less)

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.

Our lives are way too easy.

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

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?)

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

Do 11 pullups instead of 10.

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.

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

as a Navy SEAL.

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

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

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.

Don’t give up quality sleep to do this.

4. Meditate

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

3. Turn Off the AC

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

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

I’d challenge you to stretch your 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.

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

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.

Seriously.

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.

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