have actually been losing my willpower lately. I started reading this and started to take notes. I'm starting to take the "faucet-draining" technique into play. My "inanimate" object so to speak would actually be the last silver ring my grandfather ever made. Now after work, I look at that ring and I begin to feel the negative energy drain from my shoulders. The reason why I picked this object is because it reminded me of my grandfathers' successful craftsmanship throughout his life. Therefore, helping me regain my willpower.

I found several more techniques to be helpful, but I'll leave the exploring for you. We each need to find different ways to keep our energy and willpower to continue fighting each day. I'm still taking notes and still discovering different ways through this book. A great helpful book!

Instant Willpower is only one of the many immediate solution guides in The INSTANT Series. It gives it to you straight—with a chaser. That chaser is a multitude of exercises to practice and implement to achieve your goals. The author is very matter-of-fact about the willpower that lies in everyone that they simply don’t grasp or maximize. It is described to readers as the “last-minute boost”, “the little voice telling you to keep going”. In seven short chapters, willpower is defined and broken down so you can use it in your daily life.

Chapter 1: Winning the Battle of Wills is an introduction to willpower. It relates what it does for you in detail along with examples. You are then prompted to describe your willpower and discover where to increase it in your life. Chapter 2: How to Create a Sense of Urgency to Get Going compares the use of willpower to a meter dash race. It encompasses visualization, preparation, concentration, and execution.

In Chapter 3: How to Set Your Willpower Free, the author delves into the negativity that prohibits most people from utilizing their willpower. Readers are shown how to release the bad, so the good can flow out. Chapter 4: How to Assert Your Lacking Willpower helps you visualize missed opportunities and possible losses. You are asked to imagine what happens when you don’t initially retrieve your luggage from an airport baggage carousel.

You will learn How to Properly Manage Your Willpower in Chapter 5 by balancing your priorities. It may sound easy enough, but it requires downsizing certain tasks to focus on new ones. Chapter 6: Generate Your Willpower pulls in some factors from the previous five chapters. By participating in four exercises, you apply techniques to unearth your buried willpower.

In the final chapter Where There is a Will, There is Always a Way, the author summarizes the power in willpower. You are provided with various methods of how to exert it. The way to do so is simple when you practice the tools laid out in this valuable book. If you are looking for instant willpower to push yourself through anything instantly, look no further than right here.

Do you ever run out of "mojo" sometimes? I think we all do, myself included. There is always that state of being in the doldrums when we happen upon a certain importnat goal and we go through that normal "ebb and flow". Sometimes we need a kick in the pants to get through the monotony of "getting there" that motivates us to keep up the march.

Not a lot of things are "instant" these days, but in this guide that you can read in a half-hour, you will learn some practical mental exercises to ramp up the flagging mojo, and they will only need small time commitments. The "faucet drain" strategy teaches you to separate from the negativity that bogs you down from going forward, and the "carousel" exercise guides you to seize oppoprtunities by mentally seeing them literally on an airport luggage carousel, and taking advantage of them before they are gone.

For the exercise involving the carousel, and thinking of a most dreaded task, I thought of dusting-ugh. Hate that chore as I always sneeze; so next time it's coming up, I will be putting this technique into action. I'm no stranger to the beneficial concepts of visualization and meditation (a deeper subject) so I know I can find places to apply these techniques.
