Free Will

My free will is often tested by me in many different ways. Sometimes I say I'd not do something then the desire to do it arises. The result is a conflict with my self. Shall I do it or not? It's horrible, but it is essential for your own self-respect.

I believe the way you use your free will affects your self-esteem. If you are a man who does what he says, then you trust yourself, and hence, you have a better self-esteem. On the other hand, if you are a man who says he will do something and doesn't keep his word, then obviously you have a low self-esteem.

The best news is that we can train our self-will to become stronger. We make stronger by using it. The way we use it is by adhering to what we said we will do. For example, one who said he will stop smoking should not smoke. If that kills him, he should be happy to die than to smoke. This is a true decision. You decide and you are ready to die for your decision. Do this often. Soon it becomes a second nature.

I decided to walk my talk. What about you?
