Willpower Isn’t One Thing, It’s Three:

1. One part of willpower concerns the ability to do what is disagreeable,

2. Another part concerns willingness to not do something, and

3. A final part concerns knowing what you truly want in the first place.

These are, in short, your will-to, will-not-to, and want-to powers.

The first has to do with desires and aversions …. The second, with cases of choice and refusal, and, in general, with duty … the third with the avoidance of error and rashness in judgment (III.2, 2–3).
