Willpower is the will to control the outcome. It expresses the desire that something is done as willed. Willpower makes one behave in a desired manner most of the time.
There are good days when you are compliant with the desired behaviour, but there are also bad days when you are flexible about the undesired behaviour.
Willpower depends on the effects of circumstances on emotions to decide how to cater to the willed behaviour. What that means is you can negotiate with your will.
Rules, on the other hand, are automatic behaviours.
You do not negotiate with circumstances and associated emotional responses every time you need to make a decision. You default to rules and stick to the behavioural patterns defined by them.
In the long run, rule-based actions position you for a better future than willpower-based actions.
