DEGREES OF FREE WILL

Some people got free will, some don’t.

Better to think:

DEGREES of free will.

For example, if someone is addicted to heroin … how much free will do they got? None. They gotta get some sort of outside intervention in order to heal them and fix them. They cannot self-will to get off heroin.

What Tom taught me

30 Minutes: Tom the Painter ERIC KIM Providence Street Vlog Interview – Blue Hat

Tom the painter. My new friend. Essentially this is the gist of what happened:

Tom’s wife is crazy, and accidentally he let his daughter spend time with an older man, who sexually violated her, and as a consequence, his daughter got fucked up for the rest of her life. She was never the same.

Heroin came after.

Some people have more free will than others

Nobody has 100% pure free will. Yet, there are degrees of free will. Willpower and free will is a muscle which can be strengthened (or weakened).

More thoughts on willpower to come.
