We tackle the fallacy that will is a scarce attribute, pointing out how it's a constant presence—even when we opt for inaction. By recognizing the elements that shape our will and acknowledging the sometimes hidden motives that keep us anchored in our current circumstances, this episode offers a framework to reshape our actions to mirror our true ambitions.We confront the delicate balance of intuition, emotion, and intellect in harnessing our will, scrutinizing the repercussions of their imbalance and the subtle forces that influence our desires.

This episode is your guide to rethinking autonomy, understanding the finite nature of will, and aligning your actions with what truly resonates within. Join us on a journey to master the conscious application of will and craft a life rich with intention and purpose.Chapters:(00:00) Nature of Willpower and Intention ExplorationsThis chapter examines the concept of willpower and its intrinsic link to the human capacity for creation through intention. I discuss the universal nature of will, challenging the notion that it is a specialized trait, and suggest that will is present even in perceived laziness, as choosing inaction is also an act of intention. We explore the integration of various aspects of the self—intuition, emotion, and intellect—in directing our will and the potential consequences of allowing one to dominate. By bringing awareness to the influences shaping our will, we can assess whether they align with our desires and effectively employ our will towards fulfilling intentions. Additionally, I touch on the idea that sometimes our will may perpetuate unwanted situations, prompting reflection on the underlying benefits or trade-offs that may be maintaining the status quo.(14:27) Living a Life of IntentThis chapter explores the importance of living with intention and the thoughtful application of our will. I reflect on the idea that hindsight might suggest different choices in our lives, questioning whether these thoughts are mere fantasies or true callings that need to be pursued. I emphasize the value of exploring these callings gently rather than making rash decisions. We discuss the concept of living on purpose and the notion that every action, including inaction, is a choice driven by our will. I encourage listeners to consider whether they are using their time and energy wisely, in alignment with a purpose that serves them. I suggest that by becoming more intentional about our choices and recognizing the finite nature of our will, we can align our actions with our heart, mind, and intuition to live a more integrated and fulfilling life.(18:34) Taking Charge of Our LifeThis chapter emphasizes the power of personal agency and the ability to use our will to shape our lives. We explore the concept of being our own self-help guru by recognizing our capacity to make choices that align with our desires and goals. I discuss the significance of embracing our freedom, understanding that we are not as constrained as we may perceive, and that we have more control over our life's direction than is often acknowledged. The conversation highlights the importance of integrating our will with our purpose, meaning, and what genuinely contributes to a fulfilling life. We examine the strategy of using our will to create positive outcomes rather than merely avoiding negative ones, and seizing the inherent opportunities of life to direct our energy towards what we truly want.If you have a question that you would like answered in a future episode, please visit: https://theunionpath.com/ask-a-questionNow available on kindle: The Union Path Anthology, Book One: Pain.
