What determines your results?nnThe ultimate power in being able to exercise your will.nnNow, some people will refer to will as 'will power' but the word "power" attached to the end of the word will only confuses us when it comes to really understanding what our will truly is.nnMost of us think of power as strength, position of authority or controlnnThe word power added to the end of our own will, speaks in terms of effort or an ability that is used, possessed or has been gained.nnBut this doesn't help us to understand anything!nnWe understand that somebody can have the ability to do a cartwheel, or a speaker having the ability to produce sounds, or the human eye possessing the ability to see. But to speak of the ability to will, leaves us completely confused to understand how naturally EFFORTLESS our will really is.nnWill: To make a reasoned choice, decision and actionnnIn other words, force and effort is not required when using will. As will is being able to choose, decide and act.nnWe have the will to do so, as we have the freedom of choice. However, this does not mean we can do whatever we want.nnYou cannot make someone do something against their own willnnA person 'could' make someone take action by making them feel scared or excited enough. But that someone chooses and acts based on their own decisions.nnA person that is scared chooses to succumb to fear by their own decisions. Someone that is excited enough decides to act according to their own reasons.nnYou cannot make someone do something against their own reasons and decisions, because they reason and decide according to what they choose is best for them.nnThe notion of somebody making someone do something against their will - is ridiculous. When you tell someone to jump they don't automatically do it every time unless they have a reason or have chosen to do so.nnWe all possess the ability to will and this must not be mistaken with "will power", which means to apply effort to make a simple decision.nnIt doesn't take any effort to use your will. It's just a case of deciding to move your muscles and directing your focus in the directions you want.nnEverybody has will - and for the person that has the typical "will power" label, is just someone that has become used to making decisions, and then acting upon them; as a result, they have unleashed the natural power we all possess within us.nnThe so called 'strongest will powered person in the world' has no power of will over you, as we all have the same ability to choose, decide, think and move alike. THE POINT HERE IS THAT WE ARE ALL USING THE SAME ABILITY!nnWill is just a case of: will you? Or wont you?nnIf you will do something; then you will use your will to take action.nnTrying to use power or force against your own ability to decide and act is pointless, because you'll only be resisting against your natural ability of body and mind.nnWhen you can't be bothered to do something, you are really implying that you can't be bothered to move your own body.nnIf you end up fighting against yourself to take action, relax and start again - to gain the habit of being able to use your will naturally and effortlessly.nnAbove all, the choices and decisions you make in the present regarding your unbeneficial thoughts and behaviors that you are aware of, are completely your choice if you continue to persist in them. In other words, if you become aware of your negative thoughts or behaviors and continue to do them, that's your own choice.nnAre you going to choose a direction that serves you or not?nnIf you do not make empowering, beneficial decisions in how you want to live your life; then you have already made a decision haven't you?nnYou have made the decision to be directed and controlled by your environment instead of creating the future you deserve.nnnMake decisions that benefit your life's higher self esteem.nnDetermination is directed focus and action, and action is what impacts your daily life.nnAct upon your beneficial feelings and decisions. And use effortless will in life to reach the given end of your desired goals.nnnnIn a nutshellnn1. Will "power" is described as effort and this is WRONG!nn2. To will - is to make choices, decide and actnn3. Get used to using your will until it naturally becomes effortlessnn5. Will you - or wont you?nnnBy Nicholas FinnegannnAuthor of Higher Self Esteem and More...nnhttp://www.nicholasfinnegan.com/index.html

While I was waiting for my dance class to start, I watched an instructor patiently coach a couple through what was obviously one of their first lessons. The instructor was having them do a “box step,” which is what it sounds like. A “box” made with your feet. It consists of two parts, a forward half box and a backward half box. Each half box has three steps: a step forward or backward, a step to the side, and a step to close the feet together. The instructor was counting out
