Another great way to boost your mental

1. Cold Showers
Whole-body movement play shows promise for children with autism - PsyPost
Start out small with only 10–30 seconds after your normal shower.
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.
If you try to do too much too soon, you will burn out and quit EVERY single time.
Have a short event where you complete a certain set of mentally challenging activities every day.
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.

Then slowly work your way up until you can easily go 30–60 days without giving into the temptation.
Start small in 10–15 minute increments and eventually, you’ll be waking up at 4:30 a.m. like a Navy SEAL.
Our lives are way too easy.
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.

Anytime you’re training in the gym, challenge yourself, once per workout, to do just “One more rep”.
It’s simply learning to be comfortable doing things you don’t want to do.
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).
Sit in the car on a hot day without cranking up the AC.
Put up with a cold winter afternoon with no heat.
When we get hot, we touch a button and voila! The room cools down to a chilly 68 degrees.
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 Navy SEAL training program, there’s an event known as hell week.
Do 11 pullups instead of 10.
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

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.
3. Turn Off the AC
The same way you get physically stronger…
Challenge yourself and you’ll be amazed by the results.
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?)
Sitting down for 5–30 minutes and doing NOTHING is way harder than it sounds.
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.
strength isn’t rocket science.
Plain and simple.
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.
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 is to wake up earlier.
