The lessons it teaches are much like those of 'Ben Hur,' and in this respect it might be viewed as anticipatory of the work of Wallace. The possibilities of will-power and self-control appealed tremendously to my vivid imagination, and I began to discipline myself. Had I a sweet cake or a juicy apple which I was dying to eat I would give it to another boy and go through the tortures of Tantalus, pained but satisfied. Had I some difficult task before me which was exhausting I would attack it again and again until it was done. So I practiced day by day from morning till night. At first it called for a vigorous mental effort directed against disposition and desire, but as years went by the conflict lessened and finally my will and wish became identical.","author":"Nikola Tesla","tags":["dedication","discipline","motivation","will-power","work-ethic"],"id":36832,"author_id":"Nikola+Tesla"},{"text":"The will to dare, the will to act.","author":"Lailah Gifty Akita","tags":["action","actions-over-words","believe-and-achieve","believe-in-yourself","daring-and-living","daring-life","daring","determination-effort","determination","encouragement","inspirational","motivational","persistence","persistent-action","persistent-effort","persistent-life","positive-thinking","self-belief","self-confidence","uplifting","will-power","wise","wise-words"],"id":37683,"author_id":"Lailah+Gifty+Akita"},{"text":"Do not be your own devil.","author":"Lailah Gifty Akita","tags":["devil","faith","humorous","inspiration","mind-set","motivation","self-help","will-power"],"id":38296,"author_id":"Lailah+Gifty+Akita"}],"pagination":{"page":1,"page_size":10,"total":83,"pages":9,"next":"?page=2\u0026page_size=10"}}
