its difficult because the strings are designed to be around a certain tension at that particular note.

so for example, the D string is around a certain tension when u tune it to D. but if u tune higher, then the tension will increase as u keep getting higher. once its too high, either the string snaps or the high tension will spoil your guitar.

thats why people usually advice you to tune down.

another option is to get different strings maybe?
