Start this off by doing it for one 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.

toughness by turning the AC off.

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

It’s simply learning to be comfortable doing things you don’t want to do.

Then slowly work your way up until you can easily go 30–60 days without giving into the temptation.

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

toughness.

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.

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.

What is your opinion? I am 150-152 and I feel short. I’m 15 years old. I feel like this makes me look like a baby and ugly on most clothes.

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

Don’t give up quality sleep to do this.

toughness is to wake up earlier.

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

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

Start now, start small, and work your way up.

Do 11 pullups instead of 10.

The same way you get physically stronger…

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

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?)

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

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.

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.

Start with only 12–24 hours.

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.

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

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

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

But if you’re doing this SOLELY to test your mental

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.

Plain and simple.

3. Turn Off the AC

Before We Begin: The Principle of Progressive Overload

Put up with a cold winter afternoon with no heat.

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

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.

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.
