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

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

4. Meditate

I haven’t eaten junk food for weeks, I ate dirty all-day yesterday, but I can’t even workout, why am I so tired?

I’m just better at handling the suck.

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.

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

Why do women consider 80% of men as unattractive?

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.

Put up with a cold winter afternoon with no heat.

Don’t give up quality sleep to do this.

Why are white men so obsessed with Asian women? I'm friends with people from all different backgrounds but I never see my other non-white male friends obsess over or talk about Asian women like I've seen the white ones do.

2. One More Rep

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

Why is every human messed up in some way?

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.

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

Do 21 pushups instead of 20.

What are the possible reasons for people feeling depressed after the holiday season? Why does being alone exacerbate these feelings?

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.

Why are people becoming increasingly hostile to pro-lifers? I am pro-life.

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.

Plain and simple.

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.

It is common sense that Joe Biden is ruining America and is unfit to be president, but why are the liberals still supporting him when Trump is obviously a much better fit for office?

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

Is something wrong with my discharge? So, when I masturbate, white discharge comes from my vagina, but it's not stretchy, it's pasty. It doesn't smell and I'm not itchy, so I'm sure it's not a yeast infection. Why is it pasty though?

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

Our lives are way too easy.

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

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.

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

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

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

Start with only 12–24 hours.

And it’s exactly how it sounds.

It’s funny…

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

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?)

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

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.

1. Cold Showers

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.

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

6. Wake Up Earlier (Without Sleeping Less)

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

Seriously.

Another great way to boost your mental

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

So how do you cultivate mental

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