How to Use Willpower To Create and Manifest.
Why does willpower always seem to run out—and what if that's because you're using it wrong?
If you've ever felt as if you had to force yourself to through every goal, only to burn out before reaching it, this Generation Watts episode will change how you approach willpower and goals. Host Kissey Asplund (intuitive creative consultant) breaks down the real definition of willpower through the lens of Energy Alchemy—no stubbornness or grit, but as a way of directing your energy toward what you actually want to create.
Most of us operate in a state of unawareness—which means our energy (and willpower) gets pointed at a life that simply reflects that unawareness back to us. In this episode, you'll learn how to reverse that. Through mental performance coaching and energy-work, Kissey shows you how to connect with the frequency of your timeless creative intelligence. You'll learn the actual logic of energy (and willpower) so you may direct your willpower with precision in your business, relationships, athletic performance, or creative work, and get next-level results using far less effort.
Kissey also reveals other overlooked tools in this process—the words you use daily and how commanding your language is essential to making your willpower work for you. What we'll cover is the same approach most successful people in any industry or field use, many times without realizing it: They don't force their willpower to work—they let it work for them.
If you're ready to stop forcing outcomes and begin directing your energy with intention, this show is for you.
What You’ll Learn In This Episode.
In this episode you'll learn:
Why willpower rails when it's based on force, and what frequencies energy alchemy uses instead
How mental performance coaching helps you direct energy towards the goals you actually want
Why most people unconsciously create a life that reflects their unawareness
How frequency-work and commanding your words changes how your willpower functions
How high-achievers make willpower work for them, not against them
How to apply this to business, relationships, sports, and creative work

You are a being of energy. You're not your name, your title, where you work, where you live, you dress, your skin color, anything of that. You are a being, an energy in embodiment. Today on the podcast, we're going to talk about willpower, the good, the bad, and the ugly.
Generation. Hi everybody. Welcome to the Generation Watts podcast. My name is Kissey Asplund and today you will learn how willpower is actually a very very good asset, a good skill set to have when it comes to energy. We're going to talk about willpower. The way that the energy system sees willpower, the cultural distorted form of willpower, it's very messed up. We're also going to talk about other ways to manifest in this reality. You don't need willpower all the time to generate or to create something. There are other tools that you need to be using actually more than raw willpower in order to will things into existence.
Let's take a look at the backend system. What willpower's purpose is? If we comprehend the purpose, then we can see the distortions on where it's um going off track a little bit. All right. So, willpower according to the energy system. And I'm tapping in right now while I'm filming this and doing this podcast. So, willpower according to the energy system is a tool, a force that we have in the time bound to make sure that we stay on track according to the timeless system. So, you have two systems, right? Or you have to you have two parts to a system. The timeless which some call the higher self that actually guides the time bound. So the time bound is the physical form, the body, the the existence that you are in right now that can experience this podcast, the video that I'm filming. So you need both of them to function together. The willpower is the timebound security measure to keep things on track. So willpower and ego are very connected.
As you may have remembered from a previous episode, I was explaining how ego is actually a good thing if it's functioning in the right form. That ego is basically a project manager for your timebound system. If the ego is off track, that's where we get ego inflation. That is where we get distorted ego. That is where we get ego problems and that's where we get a culture that we have right now that is very ego inflated and really into itself. The willpower is a command system that you have in order to guide and direct energy. This means that when you are in your full capacity, when you are in your full energy, you use your willpower in order to focus and beam energy into certain directions. This is where we command things. This is where I will is a command state where you state that something is right now in this moment. So I will is not I am going to. I will means in this moment, right now, in this real time, this is and so it is.
So, let's talk about willpower and consciousness. Willpower is there to make sure that the timeless equations functions and come into expression that you actually fulfill the timeless equations that you have stated. I know there's some people now that are saying, "Well, I didn't decide that I wanted my reality to be like this." There are other things, other factors that come into it. So, don't get too worked up about it. Now, when it comes to consciousness, the willpower's job is to realize the consciousness that you exist in. So the ego and the willpower are there as project managers or tools to assure that the consciousness that you are in fulfill itself accordingly to that. So it also helps the brain to animate and make the whole reality consistent. So it makes sense to you. Your whole existence as a being, as a timebound body in this reality is that you need to receive perceptual input. You need to perceive your reality. You need to sense in order to exist. This is how we assure that we stay in this atomic reality. The ego and the willpower's job is to assure that you stay in the accurate consciousness in order to perceive reality as needed for your time bound. This helps your time bound generate a consistent reality in uh in this consistent experience of reality is what I meant.
Let's talk about timebound willpower. Like raw time bound willpower. This is willpower that gets used no matter what level your awareness or timeless is at. No matter if you are connected or not. There's a timeless and a time bound that have to function together. When you're masterful, this bridge connection is very very close. It's almost impossible to break. When you are not so masterful, when you are unconscious, as we say in our society, this gap is much bigger and you become more fragile. You become more porous. Here you can also use timebound willpower. However, it is not as fueled by the timeless because there is a lot of interference. And this is what I was mentioning before that there are other factors that plays in. It becomes harder to hear yourself. It becomes harder to comprehend what the equation states. People become confused about what the next step, what the next action is, what they need to do in to in order to embody their purpose, in order to embody their passion. This is the place where people spend tons of money on a project because they get they just don't see clearly how to move and when to move and the timing throws off. They're out of synchronicity, all that stuff. This has to do with the distance between the timeless and the time bound. When the gap is wide, very wide between the timeless and time bound, the time bound can action willpower. But the timebound willpower is fueled by other things than what the timeless states. So here we have for example if the ego has become hijacked and it's inflated the willpower is working on behalf of the inflated ego to action various outcomes or various generate various realities. And this is where it can get very problematic. This is where people can will things into existence that is not good for them that they don't need that actually is not of benefit at all. This is where you you think that the ultimate dream looks like say no offense but say like the ultimate dream is to have a pink house surrounded by elephants and it's all in gold. But maybe your timeless is like, hey, my ultimate dream as an embodied person is actually to invent this thing to shift humans into a different state. Do you see how disproportionate and how far away those those realities are from each other? Time bound willpower has limitations. When the your willpower is actioning behalf on your timeless, it can bring in masterpieces.
People who are successful in this reality, people who are masterful in any subject, they comprehend how to use their willpower in combination with their being and doing. You are a being of energy. So this is the essential part of you. You're not your name. You're not your title. You're not where you work. You're not where you live. You're not what you dress. You're not your skin color. Anything of that. You are a being, an energy in embodiment. You're a timeless being in a timebound form which can then express itself in many, many different ways. This is the true form of you. When you comprehend what that being, what that energy feels like and how it feels to be in embodiment, to be in the present now and have your full presence, you then go and action. You go and do. So in order for me to move my hand, I have to be in a sort of awareness in my body to direct my cells right now to move. This is me being and going into a doing. Whenever you do anything in your creative process, you need to anchor yourself in the being, in the timeless elevated awareness and allow yourself to do from your timeless into the time bound. That's where you do an action. You have an idea. You have a knowing. I have a sensation that this is possible. Nobody did this before. All right. Let me go and take the steps needed in order to action this. Some people and they're not many but some people are so masterful that they can just hold a particular resonance. A resonance is an amount of energy that is circulating that is moving that is causing a loop that's causing a pattern. Right? So they're holding a particular resonance of a certain quality and in it they state their will and then it attracts things towards them. So this is where people talk about the law of attraction. So you have to be in your being in your timeless connection between your timeless and time bound. There you use your will and then you it generates things into the re reality. If you want to play around with uh will and using willpower, I would first spend time comprehend what your being is, what it feels like to be you. Here is it. It's great to become the observer. I became the observer for many years. So you become the observer. You listen to your words. You listen to your actions. You listen to how you feel and how you emote and how you act around others. what you role you play in society, what programs, what subconscious energetic equations you are playing, what sequences are you playing out constantly, what is looping.
So the conclusions for today, the willpower is something that you hone in the time bound to assure that you do and follow the equations of the timeless. When all of this is in sync, your time bomb becomes something that looks out for you, that keeps you on track, that makes sure that your focus, your energy into a beam to assure that you land at the direction that you have set as a goal. You must come into your being and comprehend what it means to be your energy beyond title, beyond name, beyond anything materialistic in this reality and come into the naked skin that you are basically your birthday suit and comprehend what that means to be in that energy to resonate at that frequency that is your resonance frequency. From there you can action your willpower into doing various things on your behalf. But again you need to have the belief systems aligned. You need to be in your being to come out with a good doing. Knowing how to use both systems of timeless and time bound is the fastest and most efficient way to generate anything in this reality. In order for that to happen, you must have a nice bridge connection. And it needs to be a solid deep strong B bridge connection between your timeless and time bound which you can then use to create various aspects and experiences in your life.
