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

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.

Have you ever been instructed/forced to crossdress for the benefit of others?

Before We Begin: The Principle of Progressive Overload

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

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.

Does being poor build better character than being born rich?

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

Our lives are way too easy.

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.

What have you learned from your parents' mistakes?

Don’t give up quality sleep to do this.

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.

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

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

7. Go Through Hell Week

toughness by turning the AC off.

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.

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

1. Cold Showers

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

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

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

Do 21 pushups instead of 20.

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

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

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).

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

Put up with a cold winter afternoon with no heat.

Start this off by doing it for one day.

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

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.

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

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?)

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.

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

5. Give Up a Vice

Do 11 pullups instead of 10.

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.

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

But rather, turn off Netflix 15 minutes before you normally do, go to bed earlier, and then wake up earlier.

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

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