On Purpose, With Willpower – and a willpower development tip

by Rick Baker
On Sep 22, 2015

What awesome power lies in the combination of strong willpower guided by strong definite life-purpose.

Willpower is wonderful, but without proper guidance it consumes energy without purpose.

Definite purpose is wonderful, but without willpower to guide and control action it is unattainable.

When strong and combined, willpower and definite purpose are destined to succeed…and be accompanied by lives well lived.

Are you living on purpose?

Are you living with willpower?

Are you living on purpose with willpower?

If not, why not…

  • Through ignorance...you've never learned about purpose and willpower?
  • Through lack of hope...you do not believe you have the ability to change/determine your fate?
  • Because you doubt purpose and willpower are the key ingredients...you think there is a better way?

Willpower Development Tip

from Frank Channing Haddock, ‘Power of Will’, (1910)

  

"The effort to overcome an aversion always develops Will."

"Determine that nothing which you must touch more or less habitually shall control the sensation which it produces."
