How do I become mentally strong?

as a Navy SEAL.

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.

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

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).

Start with only 12–24 hours.

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.

2. One More Rep

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?)

7. Go Through Hell Week

Why am I losing interest to get a job and to all my desires because of this spiritual awakening? How do I get through life because of it?

1. Cold Showers

Put up with a cold winter afternoon with no heat.

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.

Have you ever been instructed/forced to crossdress for the benefit of others?

3. Turn Off the AC

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

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

Here are a few ideas to get you started .

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.

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

I’m just better at handling the suck.

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

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

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

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

toughness is to meditate.

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

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.

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.

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

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