Will Power

There is not great talent without great will power.
Honoré de Balzac

Will power is but the unflinching purpose to carry a task you set for yourself to fulfillment. If I set for myself a task, be it ever so trifling, I shall see it through. How else shall I have confidence in myself to do important things?
The Richest Man in Babylon, George Clason


Proverbs

Where there's a will, there's a way.

When the will is ready the feet are light.

The cyclone derives its powers from a calm center. So does a person.
Norman Vincent Peale

Giacomo Casanova
