I've never liked the word.
'What's that word ever done to you?'
Plenty. It's provided me with an excuse to not do something I know I should be doing on the basis that I'm simply not capable. I just don't have 'the power'. And it isn't even my fault. This lack of capability was pre-determined when the willpower cards were be distributed at birth. 'I just don't have strong willpower.' Blah.
It's been my 'go-to guy' just about everytime I don't feel up to doing something.
'the ability to control oneself and determine one's actions...'
Maybe. But, I like to think somewhere along the way in my self-development I've acquired the ability to abstain from that which is damaging to myself (and others). For whatever reason, I may not always choose this path, but I'm no longer going to allow myself to blame it on a 'lack of willpower'. I'm taking responsibility for my choices and not falling victim to believing that betterment is outside my control. It's time.
Either we want something badly enough to make a change or we don't.
When you break it down, all you really need is:
That sounds a lot better to me.
So, don't let a word beat you. You're better than that. Figure out what you need, decide you're worth it and then commit yourself to it.
