Why Is Will Important?
Remember the old saying, "Where there's a will, there's a way"? Your will is a very important factor in your success. Why is will important? The will is a very real thing that is closely connected to the "I". Will is the immediate expression of ego, and when the "I" acts, it does so through the will.
This ego expresses itself in two ways: The first way is the assertion of "I am", which expresses its existence and reality. The second way is the expression, "I will." Through the will is expressed the desire for action.
The "I will" comes from the center of your being, and is your strongest expression of life force. The degree to which you cultivate your will determines your degree of positivity. The person with a strong will is a positive, courageous, masterful individual who is rewarded for his efforts.
Your human will is actually a living force. It is a natural force of nature, like electricity or magnetism. Will is as real as energy. We first have a desire to do a thing, and then comes the will that allows us to act.
If you have a strong will, nothing is impossible. Will depends a great deal on one's belief in his ability. In fact, all actions depend on belief. To know you have a will, it is important that you express or exert it.
Having a strong will does not refer to stubbornness. Someone with a strong will knows when to go forward and when to retreat. Sometimes it is necessary to step back before moving forward. Then, when the time comes to move, they man with the strong will moves forward effortlessly, stopped by nothing.
Robert Collier, author of The Secret of the Ages, believes that all personal power resides in the will. If one intends to accomplish anything in the world, he must first develop a powerful will.
If you need to build a stronger will, use a constant affirmation that "I can and I will accomplish this thing." Find inspirational literature that will keep you focused on building will power. These will help you in times of discouragement or when you need to shake off depression.
The best mental attitude you can have toward your financial success can be expressed by the "I can and I will" state of mind. With this statement you express belief in your ability and you will tap into the force of will.
This force, used with energy and determination, will sweep away obstacles before it.
In all conflicts between men, be advised that the strongest will wins the day. Expression of will impresses those around you with a kind of psychic power that helps move you toward success. Your will sets up a strong center of influence around you.
Your assertion of will also sets in motion certain natural laws which compel things toward you. In this way you help drive the success you desire.
Here are some sayings to remember:
"The education of the will is the object of existence."
"They can who think they can. Character is a perfectly educated will."
"Nothing can resist the will of a man who knows what is true and wills what is good."

Good evening my sister, yes indeed by once saying I will do this or I will do that puts power into their intention, and on the flip side of that one that says I may do that, I think I can do that, I try to do that, has already coverage his or herself with doubt. One must believe that they can do something, with all of their mind heart and spirit. Refused to let anyone or anything bring negativity or doubt within their consciousness. May you have a wonderful weekend my sister.

'Will' is unquantifiable. It is more to do with certainty and belief. If you have the will, no matter what the task, you will accomplish it. Great post Fran. I think you have tapped into an underlying feeling that is doing the rounds here, at the moment. Hopefully you have given a few, who are teetering on the edge of self doubt and overwhelm, the guidance needed to help them through the tough times.
If I can do that, it's a wonderful thing.
