You can have good plans for yourself but your willpower decides how much you will be able to execute those plans. Until plans are well executed you cannot expect a result. To execute a plan you have to cross many hurdles. These hurdles will test you and check whether you can pass them. These are the times when your willpower is tested.

Your body and mind will always pull you towards your temptations. How you overcome these temptations is your willpower. Your willpower helps you in two actions - First, to control yourself from something which you badly want but you should not. Second, to push you to do something which you do not like or want. Time to time situations will come to you where you have to push yourself against your wish and many situations where you have to hold yourself back.

To take such actions you have to be little harsh with yourself initially. You have to hurt yourself by denying. You have to be strict with yourself. Slowly after few instances you will see this will be a habit. Then you can easily take decision where to say "No" and where to say "Yes".

Many believe they cannot do this as their willpower is weak. On the contrary, they are making their willpower weak without taking the required action. The more you act on yourself, the more willpower you will have. Start building up your willpower by taking actions. Put small challenges infront of yourself and try to use your will power to achieve those. Gradually increase the challenges to take your willpower to a new heights.
