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.

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.

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.

Why do people hate Nickelback so much? What makes them different from other popular bands like Linkin Park, Green Day, etc.? Is it just because they're Canadian or what?

2. One More Rep

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

4. Meditate

The same way you get physically stronger…

Seriously.

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.

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.

But rather, turn off Netflix 15 minutes before you normally do, go to bed earlier, and then wake up earlier.

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

If you try to do too much too soon, you will burn out and quit EVERY single time.

toughness is to wake up earlier.

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

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.

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

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

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.

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

Start with only 12–24 hours.
