释义

To be able to make yourself do something, usually something difficult, emotional, or that you do not want to do.

用法与细微差别

Used mainly in negative situations: "can't find it in myself/himself/her". Often followed by 'to' and a verb (e.g., 'find it in myself to forgive'). More emotional than simply saying 'decide' or 'want'. Not literal; means emotional willingness or strength.
