This is interesting. Offer someone -untrained- $1million to not to connect for 30 days and they'll (most of them) do it. A trained person may fail to do that without the incentive. Now offer an untrained person to lift 100 Kg with the same incentive. They'll fail whatever the cash is. A trained person with the right physic power will do it. No incentives required. Conclusion: will power is not a muscle. Will Power is already strong, at its max. It's not about improving it, it's about creating incentives for it to perform. It's putting yourself in the right environment and making a strong plan.
