I want to tell you about event, called "Personal efficiency: Can you manage your life?", which I visited yesterday. I met really positive and friendly people and together we learnt a lot of new things! :)
The place is called Freedom21 and it is a Co-Working space. I found this sign on one of the mirrors on the walls. It means "The person in the mirror - He can!". Would you put similar sign on your mirror?

Well, it is the thing that allows us to control our thoughts, behaviour and emotions.
It means that we can use only a certain amount of willpower for many things. What we have to do is creating a schedule, which will help us to adjust how much will do we put in the things we are doing. We have to keep track of the activities, we are spending our willpower on. Of course at the end of the day we are all tired and we lack willpower.
It appears that the amount of willpower doesn't increase with the years, so you have to train it. How? By forming habits. You can deposit your will in some processes, to make lasting improvements of your life, because habits don't consume willpower.
