If you don't succeed in what you do, everyone will tell you. You don't have WILLPOWER!
Interesting and completely false, 90% false to be honest. You see, if you live in a certain environment a lot of what you do will be influenced by this. I am trying to say that WILLPOWER is only a small yet important part in your transformation. Think about it. You have a large appetite and you crave for fat and sweet food a lot more than someone else. Now, because you have this desire, you are now fat. For you to lose this extra weight one must not eat so much and exercise more. You need WILLPOWER for this but you also need a certain ENVIRONMENT.
You need to not live in a gingerbread house if you want to lose weight. You need to have people that don't eat half a pig in front of you.
Now let's get from food to success. In the same way as before to be successful you need to have WILLPOWER and people around you that are striving to be successful or are already successful. You would need a god amount of will power to be living with dead brain people. Have negative friends that nag you all day. Parents that bring you down with their disappointment. You need this environment to change.
If we look closely, that is why you are unsuccessful till the present moment...
You need WILLPOWER but look how easy would be if you change your environment. You have to swim, it's hard, but imagine that you go upstream or downstream which do you choose?
Let's go past success. Happiness, can you achieve HAPPINESS only through WILLPOWER? It's obvious here, happiness is half about the ENVIRONMENT and half about THE MIND. We all understand that you can't be happy in prison, so you need FREEDOM, you can't be happy by not doing something productive, you need PRODUCTIVITY, you can't be happy doing meaningless work, so you need PURPOSE. You want to share all that you learn so you need LOVE and FRIENDSHIP.
What does WILLPOWER have to do with all that? Well, you need it to be able to change your environment and find people. You need it to start the process, the intelligent way.
