Sometimes without cognitively knowing it, we can "eat our willpower" and you MUST NOT ALLOW THIS TO HAPPEN>>>>>>>>>>>>> !!!!!!!!!!....NEVER!
James Gordon
It's not that some people have willpower and some don't. It's that some people are ready to change and others are not.
Marcia Wieder
Willingness is essential in any initiation or in making an dream come true. I can't often means I won't. You can change I won't to I will with will power.
Victor Hugo
People do not lack strength; they lack will.
Peter F. Drucker
What you have to do and the way you have to do it is incredibly simple. Whether you are willing to do it, that's another matter.
Benjamin Disraeli
Nothing can withstand the power of the human will if it is willing to stake its very existence to the extent of its purpose.
Leon Battista Alberti
A man can do all things if he but wills them.
“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.”
TR
“Mediocrity is self-inflicted. Genius is self-bestowed.”
Walter Russell
“Will is character in action”
William McDougall
“It is by will alone that I set my mind in motion.”
Mentat Prayer
“Sometimes you have to be a bitch to get things done.”
Madonna
(ROTFL!!!) TRUE THOUGH, LOL
“Willpower is the ability to eat one salted peanut.”
(good one for deficit dieters).......I have had to literally learn this because I ADORE and LOVE Natural Peanut butter)
“I stand for freedom of expression, doing what you believe in, and going after your dreams.”
Madonna
(whats with my Madonna quotes today.."scratches head")
The will is the keystone in the arch of human achievement. It is the culmination of our complex mental faculties. It is the power that rules minds, men and nations.
THOMAS PARKER BOYD
Willpower is not some mythical force that we either have or don't have. Willpower is our decision to use higher-mind thinking instead of lazing around in the clutches of our primal mind.
A.B. CURTISS
To assert your willpower is simply to make up your mind that you want something, and then refuse to be put off. In short, think about what you want and hold to that thought. Believe in it as a reality, regardless of what may appear to be true. This is willpower in action, and anyone can do it.
PHILLIP COOPER
"Will power is to the mind like a strong blind man who carries on his shoulders a lame man who can see."
Arthur Schopenhauer
"Free will and determinism are like a game of cards. The hand that is dealt you is determinism. The way you play your hand is free will." Norman Cousins
"Your own mind is a sacred enclosure into which nothing harmful can enter except by your promotion."
Ralph Waldo Emerson
"You are what your deep, driving desire is.
As your deep, driving desire is, so is your will.
As your will is, so is your deed.
As your deed is, so is your destiny."
- Upanishads
Construct your determination with Sustained Effort, Controlled Attention, and
Concentrated Energy. Opportunities never come to those who wait... they are captured by those who dare to attack."
- Paul J. Meyer
=======================================================
And one of my personal favorites:
A vow is fixed and unalterable determination to do a thing, when such a
determination is related to something noble which can only uplift the
man who makes the resolve."
- Mahatma Gandhi

Good evening everyone! ROCK THE HELL ON!
STRONG WILLPOWER constructs mental power and can be a breeding ground for other mental positives.............TRUST ME ON THIS PEOPLE
In my heart of hearts I hope this day went well for you all. That you met or exceeded your diet plan today, and if a training day, that it went well and exceeded your expectations.
Have a wonderful rest of the evening.
Best as always
