INTRODUCTION
In this article we are going to be known about an Important question, and that is the willpower. How to develop our willpower. Coming right up. So when we talk about willpower, first of all we need to understand about this. Willpower is the ability to control our emotions and put ourself into a schedule and work on it for our own success. So many of us find so much hard and it is a tough task to run ourself in a schedule. To do that, we need to have the willpower. We need to have that mental discipline to control the emotions that pop up in our mind. So, how to do this thing? Well, there is a basic and very important factor that always helps us to develop our willpower and that is known as, our great teacher Supreme Buddha taught us, and that is known as the Chanda. Chanda means the desire, passion.
The Role of Desire and Passion
If you have the desire for doing something, if you are passionate on doing something, if you are passionate of developing yourself, you will be always motivated and you will always have that energy within yourself to do that. But many of the students actually, and many of us, find very hard to get up early in the morning and start studying. Why? Because we don't have that willpower. To develop that willpower, we need to have the desire for doing.
So desire or the passion is the factor that drives through these tough tasks. So first of all, we need to develop the passion or the desire for our own success. So how to do that? So if you see some advantages of doing something, If you feel the advantages of doing something, then you will be passionate on doing that. So for an example, if I tell you that tomorrow you're going to go a picnic or a trip, so you should show up at 3 am. in the morning to a specific place. Normally, we will get up at maybe 2 am and we will get ready. We will pack our bags and we will go for that and we will show up at right at 3 am because we are passionate about that. We have the desire to go and have that pleasure.
So in that case, you can get up early in the morning. But if we tell a person or a student to get up early in the morning and study, he or she will never do that because you don't have the desire for that. So first of all, you need to contemplate and you need to focus on the advantages of study. You need to visualize that the achievements that you are going to achieve in the future. So when you see that specific goal and destination that you have to go and if you visualize that you are going to have that, then you will develop your desire.

But if you are going to the gym constantly and working out, if you work out, your body starts to grow up. Same goes with this willpower or same goes with success.
