That’s the definition of willpower – defined by google.
Some people think willpower will solve the trick to their issues
Or that enough willpower equals success in life [however one defines that]
If only…
The problem is that will power isn’t an unlimited resource
Will power gets drained like a battery and gets recharged as we sleep throughout the night just like our cell phones.
My Iphone lets me know what percentage the battery is at – currently it’s at 80%, in a few hours it will be down to 50% 30 % , 20% (low power mode) and dwindle all the way to 1%.
That’s how willpower works
if only we could have a percentage gauge to go off of.
But we don’t – the next best thing is to practice our willpower when the battery is fully charged
When it’s closer to 100% as opposed to closer to 1%
On which end of the spectrum do you think our willpower will have a greater chance of success?
Then prioritizing comes into play
At any rate, willpower will be most readily available in the beginning of our days, after a good night’s rest
so let’s make the best use we can out of the limited time – and limited resource – that we have.
