How do I become mentally strong?

strength over time.

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).

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

What does it mean to you to live a life that reflects biblical values?

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.

I’d challenge you to stretch your mental

What do you think about Vivian Jenna Wilson's decision to speak out against her father, Elon Musk, in a public interview with NBC News?

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

Start this off by doing it for one day.

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

Is it normal to hate my dog, but feel too guilty to get rid of him?

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

Seriously.

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.

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

Is it possible for buyers to negotiate after an inspection if the appraisal is lower than expected?

Are there any political parties or groups that have a mix of conservative and liberal beliefs? Why are they not as prominent in the media?

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

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

And it’s exactly how it sounds.

How will the 2026 delimitation affect India as a whole keeping the new count of 888 seats in mind (not the current 543)? I’m looking for genuine answers with facts and not rhetoric. I will only listen to answers and not reply to any of them.

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.

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

Our lives are way too easy.

What should I do if I love a girl and she apparently doesn't love me?

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

Since the rise of feminism, the dating market has shifted to the disadvantage of men and that is causing this incel phenomenon. Why do women not understand how lonely the majority of men are?

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

So how do you cultivate mental

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

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.

Another great way to boost your mental

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.

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.

If I get served by someone else's papers, am I legally required to inform the person that they got served, or the court that they served the wrong person?

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

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

strength isn’t rocket science.

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

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.

4. Meditate

toughness is to meditate.

7. Go Through Hell Week

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.

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.

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

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?)

Plain and simple.

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

I’m just better at handling the suck.

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.

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

The same way you get physically stronger…

5. Give Up a Vice

It’s funny…

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

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

2. One More Rep

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 11 pullups instead of 10.

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

Before We Begin: The Principle of Progressive Overload

Here are a few ideas to get you started .

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.

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

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