Motivating a Lackadaisical Individual

Can a lackadaisical person be compelled to do something? Individuals with low willpower have weak internal motivation, as it is determined by those very volitional neurotransmitters that function poorly in individuals prone to impulsive behavior. However, external motivation always works. The proper utilization of the prefrontal cortex involves artificially creating external coercion to do what you need, but do not want to do - or conversely, to refrain from doing what is pleasurable but harmful.
