In life, willpower is everything:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

1. Degrees of willpower<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

My thought:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Willpower exists, but exists in different degrees in human beings. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

For example, I (after training) consider myself to have more willpower than some other people. Furthermore, it seems that successful people are those who have stronger willpower than others. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Can you blame others with weaker willpower?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Now this is tricky. Can you blame someone else for having weaker willpower than you? I don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t think so. It seems most people have been domesticated their whole life. Do you blame a housekept neutered dog for not being as wild, brave, or adventurous? Of course not. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s just how they were raised and trained. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But what\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s the difference between animals and ourselves? We have the ability to train ourselves, change ourselves, and become stronger (if we have enough courage and will).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
