How do I become mentally strong?

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

The same way you get physically stronger…

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

Try it… You’ll see.

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.

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

Mental

Do 21 pushups instead of 20.

I’d challenge you to stretch your mental

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

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

strength over time.

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

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

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.

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

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.

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?)
