One way to flesh out your understanding of free will. . .
Please define what you mean by will.
My apologies for over quoting you. No my intention.
I am using free will as in to act or chose.
Will
1. conscious and especially of deliberate action; the power of control the mind has over its own actions:
the freedom of the will.
2.
power of choosing one's own actions: to have a strong or a weak will.
3. the act or process of using or asserting one's choice; volition: My hands are obedient to my will.
4. wish or desire: to submit against one's will.
6. the wish or purpose as carried out, or to be carried out
