My point is that in the exercise of will, we are comparing our environment, which is objective, which some vision of self or of rightness, which is objective. Any animal which cannot establish ideas cannot need to mediate between those ideas and its environment when determining how to act.
That being said, I'm not so sure that something as simple as a fly, which can learn, doesn't have some experience of that which is learned as it attempts to navigate its environment.
