How do I become mentally strong?
Last Updated: 20.06.2025 00:15
Have a short event where you complete a certain set of mentally challenging activities every day.
Do 11 pullups instead of 10.
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.
2. One More Rep
One rep, one set, and one step at a time.
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.
What blowjob techniques do you use for your man to cum inside your mouth?
Mental
Do just ONE more rep when you don’t think you can.
4. Meditate
Is the Donald Trump Bible any different from a regular Bible? Has Trump altered its contents?
It just won’t happen. You have to work up to it and slowly build your mental
toughness.
6. Wake Up Earlier (Without Sleeping Less)
When does a woman know she is cumming?
It’s simply learning to be comfortable doing things you don’t want to do.

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

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

Cold showers are bar none one of the FASTEST ways to build mental
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.
strength.
So how do you cultivate 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.
Here are a few ideas to get you started .
How did Kate Mulgrew feel about Jeri Ryan joining the cast of Star Trek: Voyager?
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.
Seriously.
Put up with a cold winter afternoon with no heat.
What's the point of gender reassignment surgery which doesn't change a person's chromosomes?
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?)
Don’t give up quality sleep to do this.
1. Cold Showers
What do you think about wearing sheer pantyhose?
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.
Our lives are way too easy.
But rather, turn off Netflix 15 minutes before you normally do, go to bed earlier, and then wake up earlier.
strength over time.
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.
3. Turn Off the AC
toughness, then add some temptation and make it harder to say “No”.
I’m just better at handling the suck.
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
strength isn’t rocket science.
Start small in 10–15 minute increments and eventually, you’ll be waking up at 4:30 a.m. like a Navy SEAL.
If you try to do too much too soon, you will burn out and quit EVERY single time.
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…
But if you’re doing this SOLELY to test 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.
The same way you get physically stronger…
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 now, start small, and work your way up.
Another great way to boost your mental
If you want to get mentally tougher, start by meditating for only 3 minutes a day.
Start with only 12–24 hours.
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 21 pushups instead of 20.
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.
It’s 7 days of almost no sleep, constant physical exercise, and psychological warfare.
Challenge yourself and you’ll be amazed by the results.
toughness is to meditate.
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.
toughness by turning the AC off.
Start this off by doing it for one day.
And you’ll be amazed by the hidden strength your body has.
Then slowly work your way up until you can easily go 30–60 days without giving into the temptation.
Within a few months, you’ll be astounded by your levels of 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.
I’d challenge you to stretch your mental
Anytime you’re training in the gym, challenge yourself, once per workout, to do just “One more rep”.
When we get hot, we touch a button and voila! The room cools down to a chilly 68 degrees.
And it’s exactly how it sounds.
5. Give Up a Vice
toughness is to wake up earlier.
Sit in the car on a hot day without cranking up the AC.
Plain and simple.
Try it… You’ll see.
7. Go Through Hell Week
Sitting down for 5–30 minutes and doing NOTHING is way harder than it sounds.
