The best way to face less resistance when doing good things is by slowly making it a habit. Good habits are tough to start. But they can give you enough momentum so that every good action will take less effort.
For example, while exercising can be difficult at first, it becomes much easier after consistent practice. Even when you are not motivated, you are much more likely to exercise because it has become a habit.
Self-control is only for the short term. You can achieve unimaginably great things if you develop good habits. And you will find that the benefits will go beyond what you expect.
