Free Will, An Unlimited Resource?

It seems that many suppose or assume that their free will practically has no limits at all; they seem to consider their free will as an unlimited resource.

But, is it?

No, it is not.

To illustrate this, let's suppose that someone, in full use of his free will, decides to climb the top of the Empire Strate Building in New York and once there, throw himself into the vacuum.

Certainly, at that initial moment, and being that man in charge of both elements of his free will, the faculty to decide and the faculty to do, the actor of our parable not only decides to throw himself into the vaccum: He actually does it.

And suppose that once having made this, while falling and passing through floors 140, 139, 138 and so forth, our poor friend suddenly changes his mind and also in use of his free will, decides that after all he doesn't want to end at the street's pavement.

Could then his free will, just as it did before when it had the power to throw him into the vacuum, has now the power to reverse it?

Nope. Because regardless of his faculty to decide, it is not enought to reverse it since at that moment his free will lacks the faculty to do: Therefore his free will it is not as free after all.

Remember: Faculty to decide, faculty to do constitute, together, the free will.

When one of them is missing, wheter is one or the other, we can say that the free will is disabled as such, it doesn't work.
