Willpower

"Training means nothing; Will is everything!" - Liam Neeson in Batman Begins

An indominable will is the key to success; Everyone knows this but fails to act on it. The number of success stories of people with incredible willpower measures in great numbers. Our will controls our mind and our mind controls our body. This means that our will is the key to our mental and physical limitations. If you sincerely believe yourself to be dead but your body is still alive, your body will stop functioning and you will die. Many people who has had a strong desire to live have overcomed fatal diseases. There is no athlete that achieved great success in their field without a very strong will. Our will drives us to do what is necessary to achieve what we want. How do you think athletes are able to keep training even when they are tired or feel pain? It's willpower. Mind over body. A man can beat you up physically but he cannot conquer your mind. Will overcomes fear, sadness, desperation, hopelessness and makes you feel inspired. Such is the power of will. The ability to convince yourself to do what is necessary is the only ability you need to succeed in anything you do. This ability, as I would believe, is called willpower.
