The person with a strong will knows what they want. They have a purpose in life, overcome bad habits, and inspire the respect of their fellow human beings.

This book demonstrates that the ability to strengthen our will exists within all of us. Unfortunately, many believe they have a weak will because they have not succeeded in breaking certain bad habits. This is due to their ignorance of the help that imagination can offer.

The author believes that: “when an action passes into our thoughts, it has already begun to take place.” When we imagine that we have already freed ourselves from a bad habit, we feel excitement, and at that moment, an act of self-denial helps strengthen our will, which is necessary to win.
