People believe that they are the doer and therefore they have to create or work for everything that they desire. However, many things that desired you aren't able to manifest. So by thinking your mind and body is the doer you will always fail in being fully satisfied. This has become well documented in programs like Alcoholic Anonymus as the first step is to know that you are powerless over your addiction and that you need to surrender to a higher power in order to get free from your addiction.
When you know that a higher power moves your body and mind. The electric source from the outlet lights up or bulb or cooks your food and without the source of the electricity, the appliances do not do anything. In the same way without your higher Self or higher power, you can not do anything. Therefore when there is something that you know you should do but you cannot then the next step is to surrender to the higher power. But you have to understand what exactly is meant by surrender. Surrender doesn't mean that you give up anything, It means that you know the higher power that is forever shining. You shift the attention from the mind and body as the doer to the higher Self. Then you become aware that the power to make these changes come from regularly practicing your meditation with that intention rather than trying to force yourself, unsuccessfully to do it as you believe only your mind and body is the doer. Then you know that you are the non-doer that desireless as it is already pure, free, and forever.
