Thank you everyone. You have all given me something to work on!

I was also thinking about reasoning. I think our minds "reason" with us all the time. We do something we *needn't* because our reasoning is that we like it and want it (or want to). The strongest reason always wins and I am trying to enforce stronger reasoning so that when I feel I am lacking willpower I can turn to the stronger reason vs the immediate reason.

If any of that made sense ......
