It's definitely worth practicing willpower because I can't always avoid temptation. Constant practice with the smaller things helps with the bigger things, like any practice or habit. AND, avoiding temptation is hugely useful for me. With the right firefox extensions for example I've rid myself of most of the really enticing internet time sinks. I never have sweets or sugar or processed food in the house. It doesn't have to be one or the other. I'd say for me avoiding temptation is the low hanging fruit that is obviously worth doing, and then practicing the choices I want to make is the real work. But avoiding temptation gives me more spaciousness of mind to practice my choices.
