Thank you for introducing me to dynamic (in)consistency, that is extremely helpful for resolving my understanding of will power. I have similar experiences as you describe: except in occasions of grave illness, I experience my will as infinite, and any appearance of depletion/giving up seems to arise from a divided will (eg wanting to keep riding until 2 hours is up vs wanting to be able to move without pain tomorrow)
Dynamic consistency seems like an incredibly worthwhile area to self-improve in.
How would one go about improving in that area? I can't see a straightforward way to do it.
