In a world where we are subject to a whole range of temptations, where do we find the ability to stay on course and complete the plans that we make?

A tigger is any stimulus that moves our train of thought, reshapes our immediate actions and shifts us offf course. People, events, and circumastances alter the way we do things constantly.
Triggers can be pleasant like someone giving you a call to pass on good news. They can be counterproductive. They can stir our competitive instincts by being offered a pay rise to stay the course. They can drain us, like the nws of a loved one being very ill or the company is going out of business. They can be elemental like a beutiful spring day which tempts us out of our homes.
