WITH STRONG WILLPOWER, COMES GREAT EFFORTS
Caller: Master, you have previously mentioned that we should often enhance our mental strength. For those who are lacking in this aspect, is there any method that can help?
Master Jun Hong Lu: Willpower is the key. With strong willpower, the mental strength you have will be greater – the greater your determination, the stronger your drive will be. You would tell yourself, “I ought to accomplish this”. This strong will shall fuel your efforts and you will charge towards your goal.
A negative example would be an average-looking man trying to go after a superstar. If he tells himself, “I’ll definitely make her my girlfriend, as other men have succeeded before”. With such strong mental force, he would have the power to go all out to chase his dreams.
What are the positive examples? Take a look at the innumerable scientists who have dedicated decades of their entire lives to researching and eventually they succeeded.
Assuming a scientist has been researching for years with little success, and he feels like giving up. At this critical juncture, if someone suddenly encourages him, “At this rate, you are bound for success”, it will definitely motivate him to press on.
Essentially, this is the kind of mental force that is derived from one’s willpower. Do you understand? Willpower is a form of positive energy and with this ability rightly placed, you will be filled with positivity.
