Don’t give up quality sleep to do this.

Why am I so tired of seeing homeless people all over the place?

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.

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

strength isn’t rocket science.

Who writes and reads novels nowadays?

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

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.

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.

I can not sleep. what is the problem?

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

Before We Begin: The Principle of Progressive Overload

What firsthand information do you have on prisoner-on-prisoner sexual abuse/rape?

Put up with a cold winter afternoon with no heat.

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.

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.

Is it possible to make cars that run on water instead of gasoline or other fossil fuels? Why haven't we done so yet?

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

Here are a few ideas to get you started .

What is the naughtiest fantasy that you've lived out?

I’m just better at handling the suck.

Mental

strength.

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

6. Wake Up Earlier (Without Sleeping Less)

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

The same way you get physically stronger…

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

Another great way to boost your mental

toughness by turning the AC off.

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

2. One More Rep

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

Start this off by doing it for one day.

strength?

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

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

1. Cold Showers

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.

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

I’d challenge you to stretch your mental

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.

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.

3. Turn Off the AC

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

So how do you cultivate mental

Plain and simple.

toughness is to wake up earlier.

And it’s exactly how it sounds.

4. Meditate

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 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?)

Do 21 pushups instead of 20.

toughness is to meditate.

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

Try it… You’ll see.

It’s funny…

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.
