 "Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and freedom."

~ Viktor Frankl

 Yeah, strong determination & you'll do it! I started off seriously on that path with Vipassana meditation (Gotama Buddha type, as taught by S.N. Goenka). It explores exactly that link between stimulus and reaction ... body sensations.
