For those interested in this subject, I recommend reading Atomic Habits. A lot of what gets credited to "willpower" (whether a success or a failure) is really a function of habits. Becoming conscious of habits, and changing triggers, stacking habits, etc, are far more powerful than "willpower". And, as the author pointed out, "willpower" is used as an excuse for injustice. That should make us uncomfortable, not more comfortable.
