Actions define a person, but how many of these actions are performed wholeheartedly?

Strong will plays a key role in the success of our actions. When a decision is made, its execution depends on how strongly willed the person is regarding the decision. In the world today, we are sometimes forced to act against our will. It is important not to do so, as we might not to be content with the results. Conversely, ignoring to act won’t help either.

The solution is to convince oneself of the good deed. Constantly changing oneself to perform what is necessary does not mean that ones identity is being diminished; by acting upon others wishes or commands, one might not understand the intent for or behind the action. In this case, reasoning will help understand and create a will in executing the action.

For example, growing up, people tell us not to smoke. Without knowing the reasons behind it one might decide not to smoke just because their parents or teachers asked them not to. However, they might not be entirely happy with the decision after seeing others smoking joyfully. Reasoning is the best option to strengthen their will to remain a nonsmoker. Researching or asking others why it is important not to smoke might help strengthen their will. With stronger will, the temptations will be minimal or controllable. Thus, one can wholeheartedly accept and understand the decision not to smoke.

With reasoning, actions will be performed wholeheartedly with stronger will resulting in better outcomes. Reasoning might not work in all cases; a reason why there are smokers around. They might not want the will to quit as they wholeheartedly enjoy the act. However, there are some individuals who want to quit for their loved ones; yet, they don’t have the will. Reasoning might help them strengthen their will.
