Wow. I never seen it. I tried searching "willpower Greenlantern" on Google but I don't see anything. I would like to hear what was actually said and compare it. I didn't know that someone said something like this before.
Fear is the enemy of will. Will is what makes you take action. Fear is what stops you and makes you weak.
Will has always been our sole weapon against the forces of darkness in the universe.
we must fight with all our will. Our wills haven't always been united. It's time they were.
WILL is the motion which keeps things in motion, literally and spiritually. EVERYTHING has will.

Good luck with this idea.
Your will affects things and things only. Your spirit is not a thing. Love is not a thing. The true will of the spirit is not about getting what you want but rather, loving others.

Helping others, serving others, making way for others. Selfless love is true love. I know blah, blah, blah.

Hitler would agree with you about your will being the only thing that matters.

Whether you are light or dark-sided, you are WILL. WILL is the motion which keeps things in motion, literally and spiritually. EVERYTHING has will. All things are alive and WILL is life itself.
When you do what you WANT you are staying true to your TRUE SELF and YOUR WILL and when you stay true to YOU, you are going with the FLOW!
Don't just visualize about your goals in life, go after them and make them happen. That is the way to stay true to yourself. If you don't use WILL, you'll be pushed over by stronger WILL POWER from other forces.
WILL is God, Motion of Universe, Life, It is in ALL THINGS.

Sorry dude... you said it not me:
WILL is the motion which keeps things in motion, literally and spiritually.
Emphasis added.
Maybe I misunderstood?

I don't disagree at all, but what about when people willfully do harm to another life being ?
How is that all calculated in ? Would it still be considered not bad, but just less good of a choice ?
and Would somebody willfully harming another person be punished in some way or form. Is that what Karma is ?

There are (probably) billions of human beings who would be rich or... at least in a position of being comfortable in life, if will alone was all it took.
But seriously now. Simply wishing oneself into such comfort has never worked without a whole lot of physical elbow grease inserted between the wishing and the work, lol.

Is it me or I just read a mess of discussions with the word ''Will'' as an abundant spice?
Will is necessary to do an action. (I am referring to conscious actions not involving instincts).
Without will, how can you sculpt or start a revolution or wathever? This discussion is, in my advice, pointless...

For those who wish themselves into better places and never realize it, the result is often an anger directed at those who do make it. There is no understanding why those who bust their buns for a lifetime can end up with so much... and those who do nothing end up with... well, nothing. The equation is eluded and ignored.
Will alone has to drive action or it wastes away into a garden untended.
