I had good ideas but lacked willpower and self-discipline

What is this idea or project you have been nurturing in mind since decades and lack the guts to start?

Guess a research is carried out today on the number of projects or innovative ideas in people minds on just a single street, I am sure we will find so many amazing projects. This can be explained. Every single being out there has project(s) that he envisions to carry, even the elderly. Yet, the question is do everyone has the guts to realise this projects? And this instigates us today to talk about the relevance of willpower and self-discipline in such situations. In order to grasp a clue of what these two concepts can induce in the curve of achievement, let’s look at these two individuals.

He is called Steve, 56 years old. As early as 17, Steve nurtured in his mind the will to indulge into Cocoa farming on the piece of land he inherited from his late father. Every year, he keeps on postponing the activity, raising funny excuses. Worst still, he don’t invest in the land, he chose to rent it out to his neighbour for the same purpose and console himself with the little money made. It is over 39 years today that Steve has been postponing the activity, while his neighbour has made a lot of income, bought lands and invested more in the activity. He even proposed to buy the land of Steve before he refused. Steve still has his idea of cocoa farming, in spite all these years. He still lacks the willpower that will catapult him to action, he keeps on procrastinating.

On the other hand, we have Amaze, 40 years old. He was a good Cocoa farmer who, once, supplied the whole South West for a season. He started Cocoa farming at the age of 19 and was considered as one of the outstanding Cocoa farmers who respected all it takes to smile during harvests time. So, he had total control over the cocoa market due to the quality and quantity of his cocoa for two years. The years after, he lost motivation and this drastically impacted his productivity. Other farmers came up and he lost sight before his clients. Today he is 40, and is filled with the nostalgia of the old days. See how far we can be derailed, for absence of self-discipline!!

You reading this message, are you ready to get started (willpower), or to keep consistency (self-discipline) over what you have started? Self-discipline gives you a total control over yourself, emotions, feelings, behaviours, actions and thoughts. It goes beyond what your feel enthused when you do, remove temptation from your life, helps you make the right decisions following your action plan, dump your excuses and always feel motivated and nurtured. Willpower goes along with self-discipline, since it gives you the guts to get start that idea or project you have inside. Both are intimate friends.

If you are ready to make the two your close friends, or if the message touched you, kindly drop a comment.
