The mind is the most powerful tool we have to shape our lives. By setting reasonable goals and with a rational game plan we can do great things, even if that’s just getting out of bed

A lot of the minds power is in how much can you suffer. The more pain you can take the farther you will go. kinda like workaholics but more a survival crisis…

I interpret that as “mental toughness” and I agree

You need more than just a rational plan just to get out of bed. You need a motivation, either intrinsic (a desire, like hunger or surge in physical energy) or extrinsic (your mom insists that you do it).
In the absence of motivation, even the most carefully planned action that looks awesome on paper will fail to happen.

In other words, you need “will power”
Yes. Will power. We don’t know where it comes from. Some say it can be trained the way you train your biceps. But then why doesn’t psychotherapy help with avolition? (Which is a negative symptom of schizophrenia)
