3. Turn Off the AC

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

Do Republicans want to ban books and decide what your kids can and can’t read?

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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 did lobsters evolve bright colors if they are neither poisonous nor venomous?

I’m just better at handling the suck.

So how do you cultivate mental

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

Start this off by doing it for one day.

Here are a few ideas to get you started .

Why is social media so anti-fee speech, and have they become total BS?

And it’s exactly how it sounds.

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

I’d challenge you to stretch your mental

If you caught a shoplifter at your yard sale, how would you handle it?

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

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

5. Give Up a Vice

Is it okay if I am not interested to talk to any of my relatives as I saw the real faces in my brother's marriage as none of them helped us rather were a kind of disappointment and were talking bad?

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

Plain and simple.

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

2. One More Rep

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.

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

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.

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

toughness is to wake up earlier.

6. Wake Up Earlier (Without Sleeping Less)

Try it… You’ll see.

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

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.

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.

Don’t give up quality sleep to do this.

Do 11 pullups instead of 10.

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

Do 21 pushups instead of 20.

1. Cold Showers

Seriously.

Start with only 12–24 hours.

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

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

strength over time.

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

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

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.

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

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.

The same way you get physically stronger…

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

Put up with a cold winter afternoon with no heat.

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?)

4. Meditate

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

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

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

strength isn’t rocket science.

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).

toughness is to meditate.

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

It’s funny…

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