So how do you cultivate mental

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.

Our lives are way too easy.

7. Go Through Hell Week

toughness, then add some temptation and make it harder to say “No”.

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

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

2. One More Rep

Seriously.

Start this off by doing it for one day.

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

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