5. Give Up a Vice
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

What ended your relationship with your best friend?
In the Navy SEAL training program, there’s an event known as hell week.
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.
4. Meditate
What has been your best sexual experience?
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.
Plain and simple.

It’s simply learning to be comfortable doing things you don’t want to do.
But anytime you’re doing an exercise where you can safely push yourself, go for just ONE more rep than you’re comfortable doing.

Start out small with only 10–30 seconds after your normal shower.
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.
Then slowly work your way up until you can easily go 30–60 days without giving into the temptation.
But rather, turn off Netflix 15 minutes before you normally do, go to bed earlier, and then wake up earlier.
