Free Will and Free Weights.

• • • The key to success is free will. Make ourselves slaves to good habits.

    • Free will is like shaving gel. It runs out without warning. We get one can a day a that’s it. Every decision, every action we make throughout the course of our day takes a little bit out of our can. How to get more out of our can:

      • Prison or Camp. Let other people make the decisions. Borrow other people’s willpower.Cut back on the options.

      • Tell everybody what you are going to do. Often, the pain of embarrassment will push us through.

    • Choose wisely and not very often. Whittle life down a little. Whittle our bad habits a bit and time suddenly appears.
