Someone said to me yesterday that i must have amazing will power. Let me tell you something - will power is not infinite, you only have so much every day, if you use it all up by lunch time you are going to fail! At whatever it is you are trying to do! Take weight loss. It doesnt take will power to choose between a healthy meal and a non healthy meal - that takes knowledge. Will power comes into play when you are hungry or starving and your body is screaming for energy dense foods. So if you go on a diet and you are told to eat less and you think it is all about salads and grilled chicken breast and 3 small meals a day - you are using up all your will power every single day to stay on this and it gets tougher and tougher to maintain. So how do you do what i do for 18 months and not use any will power? Not struggle to stick to it? Eating the right foods to fuel your body properly takes away most of the struggle. And your body gets used to it very quickly. Having a good reason WHY you are doing it also helps with will power - wake up every day and remember why you are doing this and the struggle gets less. Do these 2 things and you will have plenty of will power to use up for other life stresses! Eating every day shouldnt take up all your will power :)
