6. Wake Up Earlier (Without Sleeping Less)

Another great way to boost your mental

What are some possible reasons for an unfaithful spouse to not confess their affair to their partner and instead end it without telling them?

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.

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.

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

The same way you get physically stronger…

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

Dear atheist, do you realise that there is a God watching over you who will one day judge and condemn you for every wrong thing you have said and done before casting you into the lake of fire?

Here are a few ideas to get you started .

Try it… You’ll see.

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.

I’d challenge you to stretch your mental

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

How many wishes do people get on their birthday?

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

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

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.

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).

3. Turn Off the AC

Start this off by doing it for one day.

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

It’s funny…

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.

I’m just better at handling the suck.

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.

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.

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.

Don’t give up quality sleep to do this.

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

And it’s exactly how it sounds.

strength isn’t rocket science.

Seriously.

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?)

2. One More Rep

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

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.

Do 21 pushups instead of 20.

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

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

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.

Our lives are way too easy.

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

strength?

Mental
