Some of the bad habits that need to be overcome, Smandatorily require inner power and persistence to trigger that change. For e.g. Watching TV or snoozing in the bed instead of going out for a walk despite knowing the health benefits and the feel-good factor of the fresh morning. Likewise, we take so many resolutions in the New Year but more often stay far from converting them into real action. How many times we remind ourselves to be self-disciplined to achieve good marks in studies?
Here, let's ponder on some remarkable statements by noted personalities:
“It does not matter how slowly you go as long as you do not stop.” – Confucius
“What lies in our power to do, lies in our power not to do.” – Aristotle
“To succeed, you must have tremendous perseverance, tremendous will. “I will drink the ocean,” says the persevering soul.”– Sw. Vivekananda
What is will power? It is essentially the power house of the real energy within oneself, which can be exhausted or fortified or conserved. One who has practiced to tap into this fuel and harness it can easily carve his life as he desires. A few examples are worth mentioning in this context:
James Dyson is called modern day Edison. Thomas Edison who invented the light bulb tried experimenting approximately 1000 versions before he could invent the right one.
James Dyson built a vacuum cleaner after prototyping 5127 times when he found the one that worked perfectly. This took him a whole lot of 15 years hence setting a clear example of why failure should not deter us to move ahead on the designated goal. With each failure, Dyson found himself to be a step closer to perfection. Today, Dyson is a billionaire.
