Managing willpower. (please take this with a grain of salt)

A thread.
Willpower is something which pushes you to do a series of activity, with a certain goal.

The catch: These activities are very daunting, difficult, and you don't know what's the end like. You can't even IMAGINE what's the end like.
I believe you all have done this in your life. That series of all-nighters before you submit your skripsi?

That willpower is what gets you through final moments of college,
And you do even wonder... why did I have so much energy back then? Like, I can't even fathom how I did those things?

And now, you're like in a long, unending resting state, curious how to get that willpower back and feel the sense of accomplishment again.
It's okay. I repeat. It's definitely okay.

Pulling your willpower is like casting your ultimate in DotA. It has a long cool down and need so much mana/energy.
The first step is to believe that you have that willpower. It's inside you, it just needs a big nudge. (Yes, not a small nudge).

#1 Believe you have that big chunk of energy waiting to be let out.
How to believe that? Sometimes the first step is by being grateful to yourselves. Your past selves, in one way or another, must be surprised you still survived in this harsh, cruel world! Just ask them! 😁
Second, is by reminiscing all the times when you were doing something for you. REMEMBER. Just for you, , even not for your closest friend, parents, or anyone else.

The times when you did something for the hell of it, is one of the signs that you have the willpower's ingredient.
