The Essence of True Will: Acceptance Over Force
Description
Will is often misunderstood as the sheer intensity of desire. Many believe that if they want something badly enough, they possess will. But true will is not about force, nor is it about bending the world to our desires. It is, instead, rooted in acceptance—an internal power that allows us to face life’s challenges with grace, humility, and resilience. True will is not about controlling the uncontrollable; it is about mastering our responses to what we cannot change. It is our final refuge in the face of adversity, the quiet strength that enables us to move forward when life does not go our way.
