A a common sense level we might consider our will in a hoi polloi iState as strong or weak, positive or negative. A simple I want water state is easy to understand as thirst that has a physical and mental presence as a combination of sentience and sapient awareness a mixture like tea with milk or water with milk or sugar with water, in other words the state in the present awareness is neither fully one thing or the other and amounts to something particular that can be named to flag a particular inner awareness, which like the liquid mixtures always has a sense of will in the way the liquid mixtures have a sense of flavour.
Flavours create sunken values the way will awareness comes with a sense of for or against or indifferent, whatever the state is stands in relationship with previous lived experience that were similarly labeled flavours of will.
The will like flavours leaves imprints that prepopulate new occurrence of similar circumstances with attitudes.
