Strengthen your mind and you will improve your life, drastically.

Your mind dies with years of comfort and is reborn in small moments of extreme discomfort. That doesn’t mean you need to act like Rocky Balboa after slamming down egg whites and a bulletproof coffee. You can take yourself less seriously than that — and still crush it.

Here are the benefits of developing your mental muscle:

• You are more confident.
• Small stuff doesn’t define you.
• You end up doing things that others label “impossible.”
• You become more focused on your goals.
• The noise of the online world becomes irrelevant.
• Negative emotions don’t rule your life. You simply sleep them off and wake up the next day a new person.

Stage 1 of Life: A messy mind that reacts to everything.

Stage 2 of Life: A mind that is mentally tough and therefore, selective, calm, calculated, gorgeous, and less prone to penetration.
