have more will power

When I pay attention to the things I need, and to the things I don’t, and when I follow through on my knowledge. I feel smart and healthy.

i have no will power the discipline with myself fails every day.

One of the best places to find out more about the Will and strengthening your will power is http://www.willproject.org/ – The bibliography section there will give you plenty of information online and in books. You can also contribute your own ideas and knowledge on this subject. The Will Project was originally suggested by Roberto Assagioli, the author of The Act of Will.

Real Magick – The Occult Library also has some articles on this:

Bear with me because this site is new to me. I got to this window from the “You’ve done this-willing to help” link. I do not advocate anyone quitting their prescription drugs unless advised to do so by their doctor. My situation was one of desperation and I’m willing to share my story with others. I always have been proud of my will power. When I set my mind to something, I can accomplish it. I quit smoking 20 years ago after many years of on-and-off smoking. I never had a problem quitting but not starting up again was an issue. Finally, I made the decision to quit forever and did it. I did not have to use any aids to do it, just my will power. The same has been true during the past six years that I have been dealing with chronic head pain. I’ve quit certain drugs regardless of the withdrawal when I decided to do so. Finally, I made the decision to quit them all-and I did-and manage my own pain. I’m doing that now. I’m leading a much healthier life again because I can exercise and do those things I couldn’t do when on drugs. I feel much better about myself. The pain and discomfort are still there on a daily basis. It’s not easy on many days but I am in complete control.

If I find a reason why I’m not going to do something (even if the reason is just a random excuse,), as long as I believe it, I can do it…

Eg. I used Lent as an excuse not to go on MSN, and I haven’t even wanted to go on it.. Yet qualifications don’t seem to be a good enough reason to do school work…

But the will power’s there, I just don’t really use it when I need it… Like with school work, or chocolate.

I learned I can have will power if I just decide to do it and quit making excuses. It was worth doing, too.

Why do i always give up at the first hurdle?

Well I haven’t really had much chance to do this goal because I haven’t been at school… (At least that’s my excuse…). Last night I was asked to do something for my dad, but I left it ‘til the minute before I went to bed… Although I did actually start some of my schoolwork even though I don’t go back for two weeks… But I did give up after about 10 mins. I’m intending to start reading my book for English tonight though.

I forced myself to continue with ICT even though I really didn’t want to… Now I have 2 projects finised… :)
