I think that willpower or lack of is related to how important whatever behavior might be to the individual person. For example, I like chocolate... no, I LOVE chocolate. Eating a chocolate makes me feel wonderful. I get a nice warm sensation while a chunk of milk chocolate slowly melts in my mouth .. yum. But, I need to stop reaching for a chocolate everytime I want to feel warm and wonderful because there are too many calories. So I think that, for me, my willpower is weak or non-existent because ... the chocolate is fulfilling a need and I don't have a replacement. So not eating a chocolate when I want a lift is too hard - no will power.

I would probably be more helpful for me to find an alternative activity instead of chocolate. yup, I'll probably do that one of these days ... which leads right into procrastination .. ha ha
