Seriously.
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.
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

Our lives are way too easy.
I’m just better at handling the suck.
It’s 7 days of almost no sleep, constant physical exercise, and psychological warfare.
Here are a few ideas to get you started .
Have a short event where you complete a certain set of mentally challenging activities every day.
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.
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.
Challenge yourself and you’ll be amazed by the results.

Plain and simple.

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

It’s simply learning to be comfortable doing things you don’t want to do.
1. Cold Showers
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.
Sitting down for 5–30 minutes and doing NOTHING is way harder than it sounds.
The same way you get physically stronger…

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