How do I become mentally strong?

as a Navy SEAL.

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

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.

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

It’s funny…

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.

What are James Potter's flaws?

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

Start with only 12–24 hours.

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

Would you let your son wear leggings to school?

4. Meditate

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.

Seriously.

Why can’t my wife just accept the fact that I’m going to cheat?

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

Try it… You’ll see.

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).

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

Is it possible for sociopaths to feel genuine remorse for their actions or thoughts towards others, even if they are skilled at hiding it from others?

Plain and simple.

Put up with a cold winter afternoon with no heat.

Do you think it is likely that Maegor was presented a young dragon at some point, almost to the point of full-bonding, only to scorn it for Balerion in the end? If so, which one could it have been?

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

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

I’m just better at handling the suck.

So how do you cultivate mental

Here are a few ideas to get you started .

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.

6. Wake Up Earlier (Without Sleeping Less)

strength isn’t rocket science.

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.

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

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

Do 21 pushups instead of 20.

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.

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.

7. Go Through Hell Week

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.

3. Turn Off the AC

toughness is to wake up earlier.

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

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

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

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.

I’d challenge you to stretch your mental

Another great way to boost your mental

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

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

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

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

Do 11 pullups instead of 10.

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

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?)

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