And you’ll be amazed by the hidden strength your body has.
It’s funny to me how often people ignore this principle in their lives.
But if you’re doing this SOLELY to test your mental
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.
But rather, turn off Netflix 15 minutes before you normally do, go to bed earlier, and then wake up earlier.
And it’s exactly how it sounds.

Have you ever been forced to undress for money just once?
Start small in 10–15 minute increments and eventually, you’ll be waking up at 4:30 a.m. like a Navy SEAL.
Start now, start small, and work your way up.
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.

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

2. One More Rep
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.
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.
