Will over Common Sense

I am a great believer in the power of will. The biggest achievements in life are often the ones done by people with the will to move past boundaries and limits and prejudice. People can actually do more than they think they can, but it takes a strong conviction to push through all the physical and mental constraints.

Now I also believe you can go further than is actually wise. The power of will is not equal to wisdom and can in fact cancel it out. There's a very fine line between being willful and being stupid.

Or actually, it's called stubborn.

Guess which I am.
